You might be a parent, or have worked with children, been a carer, or have lived experience of the problems facing families today.
Could you spare just 2-3hrs, usually once a week, to support a struggling local family at home? We are looking for people to join our network of trained volunteers, supporting families with young children in dealing with a variety of difficulties including post-natal depression, isolation, physical and mental health problems, bereavement or financial worries.
Full training is provided through online modules and a face to face introductory and closing session. COURSE STARTS SOON. A great opportunity to get experience in family support work.EMAIL US FOR AN APPLICATION FORM AND ROLE DESCRIPTION OR A CHAT
