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.
Administration
Admin, Basic IT skills - internet & email
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.
