Our team of volunteers are located across the UK, and volunteer either remotely from a confidential space in their home, or from the Parents Helpline room in our London office.
Volunteers are fully trained with regular training updates, and have the flexibility to sign up to different helpline shifts, so they can give their best support to young people. While on a shift, volunteers are supported by members of our staff team who are on hand to answer questions, provide guidance, escalate any concerns, and provide debrief spaces throughout the day.
Volunteers are also invited to join monthly sessions with members of our management team so they can receive updates and connect with other volunteers to share experiences and learnings.
Without their support, we wouldn't be able to provide support for so many of our parents, and we are very grateful for their time.
