It’s an exciting time to join Victim Support, as we prepare to begin delivery of the Witness Service from April 2026. We look forward to welcoming current Witness Service staff and volunteers to Victim Support — and we’re also now beginning recruitment for several new roles and to fill vacant positions.
The Witness Service provides free, independent support to any witness giving evidence in criminal courts in England and Wales — both for the prosecution and the defence.
Our trained staff and volunteers help people understand what to expect before, during and after a trial, and offer practical and emotional support every step of the way, so witnesses can give their best evidence.
The Witness Service also supports bereaved family members, and friends and family who are accompanying witnesses in court.
This is an exceptional opportunity to help us ensure a smooth transition and shape a high-quality, high-impact and trauma-informed service — so every witness feels informed, supported and more confident in court.
Witness Service Volunteers provide support to victims and witnesses of crime prior to and during the court process helping them to feel safe and informed.
Why volunteer with us?
Make a difference - you will volunteer directly with victims and witnesses.
Gain skills and experience - you will receive training on how to provide practical and emotional support.
Join our community - you will be part of a large community of over 2,000 volunteers and staff.
Beyond your role – attend one of our many events/webinars and join one of our six Equality, Diversity & Inclusion networks.
What do we ask of you?
In order to join us as a Witness Service Volunteer, you must:
Be 18 years of age or over.
Be able to volunteer for at least 1 day per week, for at least 12 months.
Undertake training - this includes virtual training days as well as completing online learning modules.

Diversity Matters
VS strives to represent the diverse communities we serve and are passionate about creating an environment where all staff and volunteers feel respected and heard.
