Each volunteer will receive an induction covering general information about Think Circus, health and safety requirements, role-specific descriptions, and the process for providing feedback or lodging complaints regarding their volunteering experience.
Training will be differed based on different roles and volunteers’ experience. For most volunteers, Safeguarding training, Circus Skill training, and Client Liaison training will be provided.
