For many children and young people, living in foster care can be unsettling. Having someone there just for them can make all the difference. That someone could be you. An Independent Visitor is an adult who meets with a child or young person who is in care, to do a fun activity together. This helps the young person to do what they enjoy and provides them with a positive adult role model. The consistent friendship helps the young person to build self-esteem, confidence, and resilience. Pre-agreed volunteer expenses are reimbursed , such as personal car mileage and any agreed fees/expenditure from the session with the young person (entrance fees, refreshments, etc).

Governors for Schools find and place volunteers on school and academy governing boards. Schools do incredible things to educate young people and help them become compassionate and well-rounded citizens. However, they can’t do this job alone. School governors help to shape school policies and aims, allowing teachers to focus on delivering high-quality educational experiences. Effective governance can positively impact a child’s experience of education. Apply to become a governor by completing our online form. First, tell us about the skills and expertise you could bring to a school. Then, we’ll assign you a dedicated partnership manager to guide you through the placement process. We’ll match your skillset to a school in need, so you can be sure you’re having a positive impact and making a difference to children.
