Volunteer Befriender
We currently have a volunteering opportunity in the Wallsend area for a volunteer Befriender. If you have a couple of hours to spare and can commit to volunteering with us on a weekly basis, we’d love to hear from you!
We support a young man who is a huge Newcastle United fan, and a season ticket holder for St. James Park. Are you a member of the Toon Army who’d like to spend time talking about the new owners, a post-match run down of goals and missed chances, or if head coach Eddie Howe should be changing the line up? If so, apply via our website or get in touch for further info.
As a volunteer with Creative Support we offer training for your role, access to a volunteer supervisor, an induction, a monthly Volunteer newsletter, and an online volunteer’s peer support group. Together we can make a difference.
Suggested time commitment: 3-5 hours per week
