Volunteer Advocates

Updated: Monday 16th June 2008

You First Advocacy are currently recruiting new volunteers to support people to have their voice heard. We don't give advice, instead we can help people get the information they need to make real choices and give the help needed to get their choices across.

Our volunteers come from all backgrounds and walks of life. Many have used Advocacy as an opportunity for self-development or as a springboard into a new career. Others have been happy to help people in the community in their spare time.  We work during office hours only although our training will be in the evenings.
