    Our Independent Visitor Volunteers provide consistent and supportive relationships to children and young people in care, offering emotional support, companionship, and guidance through shared activities and time together.

    4. Help the young person develop social skills and increase their involvement in their community.
    5. Develop a positive and lasting relationship, ensuring the young person feels valued and supported.

    You will need to be over 18 years old and be living in the UK. Please note that the Independent Visitor Volunteers generally volunteer in the evenings and weekends due to the children's and young person's availability.
