Volunteering Vacancies

CONTACT CENTRE VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

Our Supported Contact Centre runs on the first and third Saturday of the month at The RISE Trust Community Hub @ The Oaks.

Our Families Together Contact Centre is a safe,  friendly and neutral place where children of separated families can spend time with one or both parents, and sometimes other family members. It is a child-centred environment that puts the needs of the children first.

Over the past year we have supported 15 families (19 children) and enabled 7 families to move on to organise their own independent contact arrangements. Families are very positive about our support which is often given during difficult times and we would love to welcome more people to our team!

Volunteers arrive about 10.30am and the session will be finished by 1.30pm. Further information on the role can be found here – Contact Centre Role May 24

 

MENTOR ME VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

Our volunteer mentors go into school on a weekly basis to work one-to-one with primary aged children. Mentoring sessions are relaxed and informal and the mentor acts as a listening ear, a sounding board and because of the consistency and continuity they offer, over time, they become a trusted friend and are there to support when worries are shared. We are currently looking for mentors to volunteer in Corsham and Melksham
