Description
Volunteer for NYAS
- Do you want to make a difference to a young person's life?
Do you have 1- 4 hours per month to spare?
We urgently require a volunteer befriender to be a positive role model for a 15 year old. So why not volunteer as a mentor/befriender for NYAS as an Independent Visitor for children and young people in care.
As a volunteer you will:
- Have fun, take young people on outings and maybe share a hobby, sport or interest
- Offer support and a listening ear and be a positive influence in a young person's life and help build self
You don't need any special qualifications
We are looking for reliable and dependable people from all walks of life.
We will provide training and on-going support. We will pay expenses to a set limit.
Here is what some of our young people and volunteers have to say about this rewarding role:
- I like how my Independent Visitor isn't anything to do with social services and is here to support me not to judge.
- They have boosted my confidence, now I feel like when I go places I can just relax and have fun.
- My young person always looks forward to me coming, they have had such a disjointed life, I am a stable figure in their life and this has to be important for them as everything else changes around them a lot.
