Volunteering is simple!
FWT has a new volunteer programme for women funded by #UKSPF UK Shared Prosperity Fund, where you can join the team. Volunteering can be a great way to meet new people, learn valuable skills and gain work experience. AT FWT, we offer a wide range of opportunities, so don’t worry about your experience as we will support you along the way and your effort will be appreciated.
During your volunteering, you will learn a lot and be able to develop your communication, digital, administrative, and interpersonal skills, as well as becoming an important part of our friendly team supporting women.
We are looking for volunteers who can help with:
- Administration and office work
- Translating and interpreting
- Marketing and promotion
- Business development
- Arts & Crafts activities
- Running IT sessions
We are also looking for language volunteers who are fluent in English and:
- Polish
- Romanian
- Arabic
- Tamil
- Bengali
If you are interested in joining our team, or to find out more, please contact Raman at 079 5081 3581 or raman.nijjar@fwt.org.uk
Volunteer Testimonials
“I looked at volunteering in other places but feel like I belong here.”
“I am always developed and stretched. I am a different person from when I came here as a service-user.”
“You can see the improvements in people – people feeling good about themselves, developing autonomy and freedom of choice.”
“There are always opportunities to develop through new projects and information about jobs in other organisations as well.”
“I really enjoyed the experience and would definitely recommend it. The staff are all very kind and welcoming, and the centre is a nice place to be in.”
“Looking for jobs can get you very depressed. I think if I wasn’t coming here, I would still be taking my depression tablet because you don’t know what to do. Coming here to FWT gives you a sense of identity and makes you feel valued.”
