Why
come to a one to one advice session?
One
to one advice sessions are for anyone wanting to find
out more about volunteering and how to get involved. These
sessions are held weekly at our offices in London Bridge
in a private confidential space. If you can't attend a
session we could either try and find a mutually convenient
time or talk through things by phone or by email, letter
etc.
What
happens at a one to one advice session?
Advice
sessions are informal chats about volunteering. By coming
to one you are looking at the options open to you as someone
thinking about volunteering. By coming to a session you
are not committing to anything. Sessions usually last
about 30 minutes and cover the following process:
