Most of the volunteering takes place within our setting but on occasionally we ask if our volunteers would like to join us on youth trips. For these trips, transport is normally provided but agreed out of pocket expenses can be paid if agreed with our team.

Our volunteers carry out a thorough induction including PVG check, working through a volunteer induction and handbook and reading through relevant policies. Our induction also includes certain mandatory training including child protection.
