VOLUNTEERING
WITH TALKMATTERS
Thinking of volunteering with us?
Our service is made possible by our team of volunteers, who are the life and heartbeat of the service.
Volunteers can serve in a variety of ways, depending on their skills experience and availability.
All our volunteers are expected to be in sympathy with the ethos of our organisation, including the requirement for confidentiality. We especially welcome applications from those who have benefited from our counselling service.
All posts are subject to Disclosure and some may be subject to genuine occupational requirement.
Counsellors
We consider applications from those who hold a recognised Diploma in Counselling, subject to our occupational requirements.
Practice Placements for Trainee Counsellors
We are not currently accepting applications for practice placements at this time. We hope to hold a recruitment day in January 2025; if you are in need of a placement closer to this date, please email us at info@talkmatters.org in December.
Board of Trustees
We are keen to receive applications from those who have experience in management and decision making. Perhaps you have experience through employment, or by serving in another voluntary capacity within a church or other agency.
We are currently interested in recruiting individuals with experience in the following disciplines:
-
Accountancy / Bookkeeping
-
Secretarial
-
Human Resources
If you have skills to offer and would like to play a crucial part in the governance of the Talkmatters service, and can make a commitment to attend regular monthly meetings, please contact us at info@talkmatters.org.
