Volunteer

Give your hours. Keep your name on the list.

Around 380 people volunteer with JACEF each year. Most give a few hours a week; some give a year. Every role is matched to a programme that has asked for help.

Ways to help

Three places people usually start.

01

Programme volunteer

Two to four hours a week with a tutoring group, food parcel team or mobile clinic rota.

02

Mentor

One young person, one hour a week, for a full year. Training and a coordinator provided.

03

Skilled support

Bookkeeping, translation, legal review, trades — project-based help with a committee.

Before you start

Every volunteer completes a short induction, a background check and two references. It takes about ten days, and it is how we keep the people we work with safe.
