| Volunteering can be a very
rewarding experience. Apart from the feel good experience of seeing
a young person’s life affected by your input, mentors at the
Bridge Mentoring Plus Scheme can gain new skills and qualifications
that support career/job changes and gain much needed practical experience
that is expected when enrolling on certain college courses.
The Bridge Mentoring Plus Scheme values its volunteers and ensures
that regular supervision is available in order for the mentor to
feel supported and appreciated.
If YOU feel you can make a difference to a young person’s
life, we would love to hear from you. You will be invited to attend
an informal interview for you to find out more about the organisation,
the people we work with and what your role will be.
Before being matched with a young person all successful volunteers
must
- Agree to an enhanced police check
- Complete an accredited Mentoring Induction Course
- Provide names and addresses of two referees
We offer you:
- Free training courses on issues relating to young people (OCN
accredited or certificated)
- Travelling and out of pocket expenses
- Job opportunities within the organisation
- Job references if you have been with us for a while
- Volunteering hours needed for college courses ie., Social Welfare,
Counselling, Youth Work
