Full job description

Barnardo’s is committed to providing ‘Better Outcomes for More Children’. Our children’s services volunteers help the charity to deliver essential services in local communities, providing support to over 300,000 children, young people and their families. This role provides a great opportunity to join our fantastic children’s services and help make a real difference. Our **Independent Visitors** provide a vital support to young people who are in care. They develop a long-term friendship with a young person and share fun and motivational experiences together. As an Independent Visitor you will help young people develop new interests, skills and hobbies or go on outings such as to the cinema, bowling or just a walk in the park. Each volunteer is carefully matched with a child or young person in their local area who shares similar interests. We are looking for a caring, reliable, and understanding volunteer to become an Independent Visitor for a young person with complex disabilities in the Plymouth Area. This Young Person will always have medical care assistance. They are a non verbal, wheel chair user who thrives on being in and around the community and involved in as many activities as possible. As an Independent Visitor, you will build a positive, supportive, and consistent relationship with a young person by spending time together once a month doing activities they enjoy. The aim is to provide the young person with a trusted adult role model, someone independent who can offer encouragement, friendship, and stability. No previous experience is necessary — full training and ongoing support will be provided. For further information please contact: Cat Bull: 07842323133 [email protected] or Lauren Cox: [email protected] Independent Visitors are outside the care system and provide young people with continuity, which is something not always possible with changing carers and social workers. We are therefore looking for people from all ages, backgrounds and walks of life to commit a minimum of 18 months (preferably longer) to working with a young person in this role.
Could you give time to support a young person in care, being their constant supporter as things change around them, meeting with them regularly, building an enduring and trusted relationship?

Tasks: Enabling a care experience child or young person, to have contact with someone independent of Social Services.

Visiting, advising and befriending a care experienced child or young person placed in residential care or a foster home on a regular basis.

Building an enduring trusting relationship over time by being a positive role model and participating in a range of activities with the child or young person to develop their emotional wellbeing, skills and interests.

Supporting young people preparing to leave care to build the skills and confidence to live independently.

Supporting health activities to foster better emotional health and wellbeing.

Adhering to Barnardo's policies and procedures at all times, including Barnardo's: Safeguarding; Equality, Diversity and Inclusion; Health & Safety; Data Protection; Confidentiality; Recording policies and procedures.

Participating fully in training and supervision.

Disclaimer: We look to recruit a diverse range of volunteers. If your skills don't fit the role exactly, please do not let this put you off as we are able to be flexible with most of our roles.
