Help Needed

You don’t necessarily need to be a parent to help though experience with children is a must. But the main requirements are friendliness and a sympathetic ear. After a short training course you’ll be allocated a family within the Waverley area who you’ll ideally visit for around 2 hours each week. You might be needed simply as a listening ear or helping and playing with young children. Many volunteers offer practical support or quite simply just adult company to a lonely single parent. Others might help parents budget if finances are a concern, helping them to manage their money more effectively. Waverley Homestart are also looking for people to join their Board of Trustees and help with fundraising.
