Help make a friendship work

Ready to apply?

Have you read through the information about what our mentors do and what skills you will need?

Not everyone who applies is accepted to be a volunteer with Friendship Works. It is essential that our mentors have certain qualities and attributes to build a friendship with a vulnerable child. To see what these are, go to what makes a mentor or download our information pack which talks through what our mentors do and the skills they need. Taking care over your application and making your answers as full as possible will maximize your chances of being offered an interview with us.

We understand that even if you want to, it might not be possible for you to volunteer with us right now. But it's not just our volunteers who make a difference. There are lots of other ways to get involved, from telling other people at your work about us, running to raise money, or following us on twitter and facebook. Why not sign up for our monthly newsletter so that we can send you the latest updates?

If you are ready to apply and you would like to join the team of volunteers working to help children across London, please fill in the application form and send it to us.
