Full job description

Job description

What is the befriending service?

· The Befriending Service links volunteers 1:1 with a disabled child/young person.

· Links are based on shared interests and activities, which you can enjoy doing together, either in the young person’s home or out in the community.

What experience do I need?

· You do not need any previous experience with disabled children or young people

· We ask that you are friendly, caring, reliable and able to make a commitment to visit a young person regularly.

What will I be doing?

You will volunteer within WECIL’s befriending service for disabled children/young people and their families. This involves:

· Spending time regularly with a disabled child or young person in their home or their local community.

· You will not be asked to administer medication or deliver personal care in this role.

Who am I responsible for?

· You are responsible for the safety and wellbeing of the child or young person you are linked with.

· All links are risk-assessed and carefully monitored by your Coordinator.

Who am I responsible to?

The parent/carer.

· You must ensure that the parent / carer’s reasonable instructions and guidance regarding the welfare of their child are adhered to and that clear communication is maintained.

· Feedback must be given to the parent/carer following a visit.

Your coordinator and Time2Share@WECIL.

· You must respond promptly to any contact from your co-ordinator.

· You are required to report monthly on any time spent with the child you are linked with, any activities undertaken, and to take part in the annual review.

How often will I be needed?

· We typically ask for volunteers to commit to 2-4 hours a week

· The days / times are agreed between the volunteer and the family.

· We ask for a minimum commitment of 6 months to ensure the child and their family are able to benefit fully from the relationship.

What about expenses?

· Volunteer travel expenses can be reimbursed on receipt of a claim form. You won’t be left out of pocket.

Time2Share@WECIL is committed to the safeguarding and welfare of children and young people and expects its staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Our first priority is to ensure the safety of the children we support. Time2Share@WECIL reserves the right to end a link without notice or giving reason.
