Volunteers must be 18 or over. Unfortunately, we are not able to offer work experience placements. Due to the training and onboarding involved, including criminal records checks, we ask volunteers to commit to at least one shift each week for 9–12 months. Shifts are 4.5 hours, or 3.5 hours on Saturdays.
We can consider summer placements for adult students who can commit to 15–20 days. These days may be spread across your availability or completed within a 3-to-4 week period.
