Are, you someone other people say is good at listening? Can you respect and maintain confidentiality and healthy boundaries. The pastoral care group are looking for people who are friendly, welcoming, team players. If this sounds like you, we would love to hear from you! Volunteering can be a wonderful way to meet new people and nurture your community. Pastoral care is available daily (online and at Friends House) each morning and afternoon and additionally Friday evening.
For more information, please see the Pastoral care volunteer role outline (PDF). We are committed to safer recruitment process, and this means you will need a Basic DBS, through the Due Diligence Checking service.
If you have a Criminal Records Check please have this to hand as we'll ask your DBS certificate number, the date of issue, the issuing body and to upload a good quality photo for our records. A criminal records check is known as a DBS in England and Wales or a PVG in Scotland. We ask volunteers to have a check from the nation they live in.
