Volunteer
Volunteering at the Safety Centre is a really rewarding experience.
As one of our volunteers, you’re part of a close-knit community, all with a common goal – to use education to save lives.
You’ll help us deliver our dynamic safety sessions with the Safety Centre team to young people and all we ask for is your time, a positive attitude and an interest in developing your own skills.
You can do this in one of two ways – either by becoming a tour guide in Hazard Alley or by being a guide answering the children’s emergency calls. We’ll provide you with the training you need, and complete the relevant disclosure checks.
If you don’t see yourself working directly with young people or don’t want to make a commitment to regular times, we have other activities that we need volunteer help with including:
- DIY
- Administration
- Recruiting more volunteers
