Volunteer at BDP
Volunteer at BDP
We’re looking for non-judgemental, committed volunteers who believe in people’s capacity to change. Is this you?
Volunteers at BDP come from diverse backgrounds and experiences, but all share a drive to make a difference to the lives of the people we work with. Our volunteers’ values come above their job history or qualifications. If you share our attitudes, we can teach you the skills needed to volunteer; we provide:
- Experience working in a front-line service which offers an established route into education, training or work
- Development of inter-personal skills – building relationships and developing skills
- A positive contribution to Bristol at large and some of the city’s most marginalized communities
BDP has a long and proud history of working with volunteers. We strongly value volunteers’ contribution to our services and have been accredited with Investing in Volunteers since February 2009.
Recruitment
Applications now open
Applications to apply to be a volunteer are open throughout the year. However, we run interviews in batches every quarter. This is because we are passionate that our volunteers receive comprehensive training before starting to work throughout the organisation. After the interviews have taken place, we will run a group training session with all new volunteers. You will need to be available for the interview date and complete the training before starting any work with us.
