They are seeking Refuge Support Volunteers to join the supportive team in one of their refuges. Volunteers provide support across a number of roles which aim to make the most of skills that volunteers bring with them.

Example roles include; befriending, accompanying residents to appointments/groups, kids clubs/activities, coffee mornings and book clubs.

They are looking for compassionate volunteers who have a passion for working with people and a can-do attitude.

As a Refuge Support Volunteer you will work directly with survivors of domestic abuse, within a supportive and friendly team, therefore gaining the opportunity to contribute and make a real difference at a time of crisis.

Trust House Reading is a small charity based in Reading which offers counselling, therapy, and emotional and practical support to people of all ages and genders affected by rape and sexual abuse.

They would like to create a very simple website which would allow them to view, access and make room bookings online for staff, counsellors and volunteers who utilise the rooms in their building.

Ideally they are looking for someone who has previous experience in this field (professionally or as a hobby) or who is particularly interested in creating websites.

Take a look at our Reading Volunteer Connect platform for details of these and many more opportunities to volunteer via our website, www.rgneeds.me. Want to get in touch? Drop us an email at volunteering@rva.org.uk or call 0118 937 2273.
