We need someone like you to help us protect a generation of children from abuse and neglect.
As a Speak out. Stay safe. volunteer, you will visit Cornwall primary schools to deliver Speak out. Stay safe. workshops that teach children about the different types of abuse and how they can speak out and stay safe. Our workshops are age-appropriate and memorable and need an energetic and enthusiastic person to deliver them to primary school children as young as 6. You'll work alongside other Speak out. Stay safe. volunteers to make sure at the end of each session the children feel empowered and know who they can speak out to if they are worried.
You'll get the opportunity to learn new skills, be a part of a friendly team of like-minded people and most importantly make a huge difference to children within Cornwall.
When you volunteer with us, we’ll ask that you commit to our initial training which includes practice sessions, home-study and multiple visits to schools to help you learn workshop materials. When you start delivering the sessions, support will be on offer from both your supervisor and other experienced volunteers.
When you apply to volunteer with us we’ll need to do some routine safeguarding checks, including an enhanced criminal record check and at least two satisfactory references. It's nothing to worry about, and we can answer any questions you have about this.
While we think this role is suitable for a whole range of people, we are particularly looking for those with the following qualities and experience.
* Passionate about helping young people and children
* Empathetic and perceptive
* Sensitive and supportive
* able to think on your feet
* works well within a team
We are currently particularly looking for in all areas of Cornwall. For this role, we can only accept people over the age of 16.
