Our Volunteers

We are able to offer much more when we have volunteers who are willing to help. From supporting on school visits, to hearing children read, to chaperoning when we’re going swimming, volunteers are invaluable. If you’re keen to volunteer, please do get in touch via this form.

Please read on if you have already approached the school about volunteering.

Volunteers – DBS disclosure and Safeguarding documents
