Volunteer Application Form
Thank you for showing your interest in volunteering with us.

Please complete the below application form.
Our 3 step recruitment process is comprehensive but fair, and we want to encourage a broad range of volunteers as this will bring extra diversity and skills to our services. The minimum age is 16 and due the current government guidelines we cannot accept applications from anyone in a high risk group.
Complete the application form.
We will then send you relevant information and forms such as, Occupational Health, and
Equality and Diversity forms. We may also require a Disclosure and Barring check
(formerly CRB). Please read the DBS Privacy policy. You’ll also need to take and upload to
this application a colour photograph of head and shoulders for your Volunteer ID badge.
If you do not have a five year UK address history, a Certificate of Good Conduct from your
country of origin or embassy will also be required.
Under 18’s will also be sent a form for Parent/Guardian authorisation.
Informal interview followed by a compulsory training session before your volunteering role
begins. (Due to Covid – 19 we are using technology such and Zoom and Facetime to operate
our interviews and training. We can discuss how this works best for you).
