Volunteering
As well as providing services for young people, Bread involves many young people as volunteers through our V for Volunteering project.
There's a wide range of new volunteering opportunities, all developed by young people. You can have access to training, get certificates for your achievements, receive expenses, make new friends and make a difference.
Here's a few ideas on how you could get involved as a volunteer:
Office Based:
- General Office Assistant/Receptionist: Are you good with people? We need a friendly person to welcome all visitors to our offices, answer the phones and help out in the office.
- Communications Worker: Do you enjoy ICT? Interested in Web design, Desk Top Publishing, Working with the media, etc. We need your help to promote the projects developing at Bread.
Working with young people:
- Peer Educator: Train as a peer educator and deliver fun workshops to other young people about issues you think are important such as Anti-Bullying, Drug Awareness, Diversity Awareness, Sexual Heath and Positive Relationships.
- Peer Mentor: Train as a peer mentor/coach to support other young people through their vinspired volunteering experience.
- Youth Worker: A number of our current youth workers joined the organisation as young people! If you like young people, enjoy a range of activites that focus on learning whilst having fun this could be for you.
- Bread Youth Management Committee (Young Trustees): Be the boss! We need young people to ensure they have their say on how all of our projects operate and develop. We need you in the driving seat to share your ideas, views and energy to take Bread into the future.
