We are looking for friendly, reliable and compassionate volunteers who enjoy working with people and supporting their community. Good communication, listening skills, patience, respect for confidentiality and a non-judgemental approach are important. An understanding of the challenges parents, carers and teenagers may face would be helpful but is not essential. No formal qualifications or previous volunteering experience are required. Induction, guidance and ongoing support will be provided.
Volunteering as a Parent-Teen Bond Champion offers opportunities to: - Make a positive difference to parents, carers, teenagers and families in your community. - Develop communication, teamwork, organisational and community engagement skills. - Gain practical experience supporting workshops, events and family-focused activities. - Receive induction, guidance and ongoing support. - Build confidence, meet new people and develop valuable experience. - Explore wider community health and wellbeing opportunities, including the possibility of becoming a Be Well Champion, subject to the relevant programme requirements.
We are looking for volunteers who can offer approximately 2–3 hours per week or support activities on a flexible, occasional basis. Regular opportunities include our weekly Parent-Teen Bond Connection Hub™ on Tuesdays and monthly Parent Connection Tea & Talk sessions on Thursday evenings. Additional opportunities may include workshops, community outreach and occasional parent-teen events. We understand that volunteers have other commitments, and availability will be discussed and agreed individually. Volunteers are not expected to attend every activity.
