Volunteer with us

We have many opportunities for members of the community who wish to contribute to our work.

Why do we use volunteers?

It enables members of the community to contribute to working with young people at risk of offending and allows them to get involved in solving community problems.
It creates a positive link between the community and these young people.

Volunteers bring particular skills to our work:

they are from the same or similar communities as the young people they work with
they offer friendship, support and advice in a way that our professional staff are unable to.

Options for volunteers

Volunteering opportunities with us:

Appropriate Adult Service - volunteers are included on a rota to support young people who are in police custody.
Referral Order Panel - panel members meet with young people and their families to agree a contract as part of a court order. Victims are also invited along to attend these panels.
Sporting Futures - young people are encouraged to get involved with a range of sporting activities supported by our volunteers.
