Job description
Independent Visitor: Mentor a young person for 2 – 4 hours per month for at least 1 year.
An Independent Visitor is usually an adult volunteer who befriends a young person in care and develops a long-term friendship with them. This often involves helping young people develop new interests, skills and hobbies or going on outings such as going to the cinema, bowling or just walking in the park.
The aim is to provide support, confidence, and fun experiences outside of the young person’s daily environment. If you are looking for a rewarding role with an organisation that makes a difference in young people’s lives, we want to hear from you.
About the role:
•Visit a young person monthly and become a trusted adult friend to them.
•Build a trusting, consistent and positive relationship with the child.
•Provide a child with the opportunity to try new activities (e.g., cinema, bowling, museums, nature walks, or simply having a chat) and spend time with them away from their placement.
•Provide visit reports and feedback after visits to help us monitor and improve the service.
In return, we offer a range of benefits including:
• Make a real difference – be a positive, stable influence in a young person’s life.
• Have fun and create memories – enjoy activities while building a meaningful bond.
• Gain valuable experience – develop skills in mentoring, communication and young people’s support.
• Access to training and job opportunities – acquire knowledge and experience in a fun setting.
• Flexible and rewarding – just a few hours a month can change a life!
You will be allocated a budget for each visit for your travel and activity.
Skills:
• Interpersonal Skills – Ability to easily build rapport and identify with young people from diverse backgrounds.
• Communication – Excellent communication skills and good report writing skills.
• Committed – Willing to commit to a child for at least one year.
• DBS Check – We will carry out safer recruitment checks, and you will be required to have an Enhanced DBS check.
