Volunteer with us
Volunteers who help our clients are at the heart of our service and we could not manage without them.
You do not need any prior experience to volunteer with us. As long as you have a desire to get involved and the passion to support people, there is a role to suit you. Volunteers receive full training in the skills needed to help people deal with their problems.
Please note that due to the nature of our work, we are unable to accept volunteers under the age of eighteen.
