Full job description

Barnardo’s is committed to providing ‘Better Outcomes for More Children’.

The role would take place either once a month for 6 months or twice a month for 6 months. In the home the volunteer’s role would be to support the child/children with any routines, to play games, watch films/TV and to be able to make sure that they are supported in the home setting while the parents/carers are out for a few hours for respite.
