Volunteer Now has partnered with Be Collective to bring a dedicated online platform for volunteering to Northern Ireland. The platform supports volunteers through the volunteering process and helps connect more people with a wider range of opportunities. There are lots of great features to Be Collective like messaging, making a profile, and being able to compile all your experiences, training, and roles as well as the skills gained within a social CV. You can search and apply for volunteer roles below. If you can’t find anything you like at the moment – register now, then check back soon – new opportunities are added all the time!
Under the supervision of a co-ordinator, volunteers assist those attending the session to participate in the activities arranged.
Volunteers must have the ability to take direction and carry out instructions, possess good communication and people skills, and be willing to work as part of a team. Full support and induction are provided by the Care Services Co-ordinator (help and advice, training queries, protocol, any problems encountered, reimbursement of expenses).
