Orientation is the briefing a volunteer receives before a first placement. It covers what the role involves, what the Foundation expects, what a volunteer can expect in return, and the part that matters most: safeguarding.
Anyone whose role brings them into contact with children is taken through our Child Protection Policy and Safeguarding Policy — who to tell if something concerns them, and what happens after they have told someone. A volunteer who knows the reporting route is worth far more to a child than one who does not.
Sessions are scheduled as intakes are confirmed rather than on a fixed calendar, and dates go to registered volunteers first. To be included, register as a volunteer and tell us where you are based and how much time you have.
