A4P has volunteers from a wide range of backgrounds; we are heavily reliant on volunteers for support with delivery of services. Donating just a few hours each week can make a real difference within Action for People-A4P. Volunteers are crucial to the continuing success of A4P and provide a great deal of support including one-to-one bi-lingual support to our users. As a volunteer you will be giving your time to help us, but volunteering can provide you with many benefits including:
- Increased job and career prospects and new skills - over 70 per cent of employers would hire a candidate with volunteering experience over someone who has never volunteered
- Increased confidence
- A great opportunity of gaining experience and satisfaction by working with people and networking with other organisation
- Specific training opportunities are provided to help staff and volunteers to progress and develop professionally.
- The opportunity to make new friends and contacts with diverse backgrounds and experiences
- The chance to have fun doing something you've never tried before
- A sense of satisfaction and achievement
- We train our volunteers and help them develop in specific areas of work in which they want to specialise.
- A great opportunity of gaining experience and satisfaction, working with people of disability.
- Great opportunities for experience of understand various culture and religions.
