Volunteering
Ways you can help

All volunteers will be supported through appropriate induction, safeguarding awareness training, clear role boundaries and ongoing support as our programmes develop.
What we ask
Our expectations of volunteers
Respect boundaries
Volunteers do not investigate concerns, confront individuals or take on responsibilities that belong to trained professionals.
Complete vetting
Depending on the role, volunteers may be required to complete references, appropriate checks and safeguarding training.
Protect confidentiality
Information shared with NESN must be handled sensitively, lawfully and only shared where appropriate.
Escalate appropriately
Concerns are passed to the right professional or statutory service rather than managed informally.
