Volunteering
The Centre is very lucky have some excellent volunteers on board who give their time during the week to support its activities.
We have been able to provide volunteering opportunities to people in the following areas:
- ESOL conversation,
- Arabic,
- gardening,
- sewing,
- computer workshops,
- supporting tutors,
- crèche.
Some of our volunteers:
Evelyn Cosham
Louise Dunn
We have also been involved with local schools enabling young people to undertake their work experience. In addition, we have worked with student placements who need teaching hours as part of their courses. Our Management Committee is made up of volunteers who give of their time cheerfully and freely.
We hope to develop volunteering further at the Centre.
Look out for our brand new Course for volunteers starting soon.
‘Volunteering in the workplace’.
This course delivered over 6 weeks will give you a good idea of what is expected of you as a volunteer, and inform you about volunteering opportunities, our policy, volunteers expenses, and much more. We will be running this course again in the spring and so if you miss out on this one you can always join the next – contact us if you would like to become a volunteer.
Do you have an hour or two to spare?
There’s a volunteering opportunity in our Cafe bar – serving drinks and snacks – Mon, Tues & Wed mornings and Mon & Thurs afternoons.
