We are always looking for volunteers to join our community!

Home-Start Norfolk’s team of trained volunteers make sure a child’s early years count. By volunteering just a few hours each week you can transform the lives of young children and their parents.

Our volunteers receive free training and are given expert support in helping families from all backgrounds through their most challenging times.

By being a volunteer for Home-Start Norfolk you will:

• make a difference to parents and children facing great difficulties.
• give something back to your local community;
  perhaps even return the support you once received from Home-Start.

As well as changing the lives of others, volunteering has a huge impact on the person giving their time. Research shows that our volunteers see:

• better health and well-being
• improved personal and skills development
• improved chances for work
• more self-confidence

Volunteering is a great thing to do if you are preparing to return to work or to progress your career – or simply if you just want to do something amazing with your spare time.

At Home-Start Norfolk we review the skills and experience across our board on an annual basis and are currently seeking a new trustee who would add value to the ongoing development of our workforce, both staff and volunteers.

Living and shaping the behaviours and values that are essential to encourage a nurturing environment within the families we support is central to the development and sustainability of our organisation.

Working together with compassion and without judgement we are looking for an individual who will help us continue to build organisational culture and values in order that our staff, volunteers and families continue to learn and grow together. Our unique service is as relevant today as when our movement was founded almost 50 years ago and we need to be ready to support more families.
