FAQ

Volunteering questions answered

Do I need any qualifications or experience?

Not at all. We welcome volunteers from all backgrounds and provide all the training you need. What matters most is your enthusiasm and commitment to our community.

How much time do I need to commit?

It depends on the role. Some positions require as little as 2 hours per month, while others involve more regular weekly commitments. We'll always discuss your availability before matching you to a role.

Will I be DBS checked?

Some roles that involve working with vulnerable adults will require a DBS (Disclosure and Barring Service) check. We cover the cost of this for all volunteers.

What training will I receive?

All volunteers receive an induction covering our values, policies and safeguarding. Role-specific training is provided depending on your position — for example, walk leader training for walking group volunteers.

Can volunteering lead to paid work?

We advertise all paid positions internally first and actively encourage volunteers to apply. Several members of our paid team started as volunteers.
