Helping Volunteer
The Listening Place
Helping Volunteers welcome visitors onto our premises and provide support to their shift.
The Listening Place is a volunteer-led charity aiming to transform how we support people who feel suicidal. Helping Volunteers are responsible for welcoming our suicidal visitors onto our premises, providing a warm and welcoming atmosphere (along with a cup of tea), and supporting our Listening Volunteers to help everything run smoothly on the shift.

We are looking for volunteers who have the empathy to greet distressed visitors, the willingness to undertake a variety of admin and other tasks and the resilience to support their team. Our Helping Volunteers need to be proactive, self-starters and team players with a basic understanding of IT.
The Listening Place provides full training and on-going support.
We ask for a weekly commitment of four hours for a period of at least six months.
