We are currently looking for someone who has the time, commitment and energy to devote to a young person in care. Once a month/ every other month visits in the Manchester area. All expenses covered.
Our volunteers enjoy the challenge of building a lasting friendship with an individual child or young person and the children and young people benefit greatly from a consistent, fun relationship with someone outside the care system who cares about them and their future. Activities will depend on the age and interests of the child but could include things like a walk, playing in the park, swimming, a visit to a museum, bike riding, sports etc. This is a long-term, one to one commitment.
Volunteers must be over 18 and are welcome from all backgrounds. Full training and ongoing support will be given, and out of pocket expenses paid for mileage and activities. Volunteers will be subject to enhanced police checks.

Activities will depend on the age and interests of the child but could include things like a walk, playing in the park, swimming, a visit to a museum, cinema, bike riding, sports etc. This is a long-term (one year min), one to one commitment. Offering a few hours every month/ few weeks, to do something fun with a young person or child who might not otherwise get the opportunity, can make a huge difference in their life.
Between you and your young person you decide when and where- so you have total flexibility in when you offer your time.
