Chance UK is a children's charity supporting primary school children with behavioural difficulties. We do this by offering them 1:1 mentoring with a fully trained and supported adult volunteer.
Our mentoring programme is designed to increase a child's confidence and self-esteem so that they can overcome their problems and look forward to a brighter future. Our mentors commit for one whole year and spend 2-4 hours every week with their matched child, engaging them in various fun and purposeful activities.
Volunteers receive comprehensive training before becoming mentors and are supported throughout the year by a Chance UK programme manager. No prior experience working with children is needed, instead we look for positive characteristics such as being committed, resilient and having a great sense of humour! If this sounds like you, please get in contact with us.
Volunteers must be over 18 but there is no upper age limit. References and a DBS check are mandatory.
