Task

We are looking for Big Brother Big Sister Volunteers in Wicklow Town & Rathnew. Big Brother Big Sister matches a young person (aged 10-18 years), in need of friendship and support, to a caring adult volunteer with a bit more life experience. They meet once a week, for 1 hour, for the initial commitment of one year. For 1 hour a week the match meet and do something they both enjoy, like kick a ball around, play Xbox, learn guitar, bake a cake, or listen to music - the possibilities are endless. Through these weekly meetings a friendship is formed and transformational change happens. The match between young person and volunteer is supported every step of the way by Foróige Mentoring staff. No experience in the field is necessary. It is a benefit for volunteers to be engaging and able to relate well to young people. We welcome volunteers with varied interests, backgrounds, life experiences and personalities! Must be over the age of 18 to apply. Volunteers must be living in Ireland... More Detail
