we just struggle to find male volunteers and some families really need a good male role model.
Parent Mentors needed, Full Training will be given!
We are looking for volunteers who are committed, capable and non-judgmental. We ask volunteers to commit to volunteering for between 1 - 4 hours a week for at least 6 months from the time that they are matched with a family.
Anyone over the age of 18 can apply to be a CSV Parent Mentoring Project volunteer but we are particularly keen to hear from people who live or work in or around Coventry. Being a parent, grandparent or carer is an advantage in this role but it is not essential.
For more information regarding the CSV Parent Mentoring Project, or for an application form please contact dawn Carville on 02476786808, 07902131592 ordawn.carville@coventry.gov.uk
I could support a family by taking their kids up the Ricoh, but that might also be considered a form of torture and wouldn't wish to get reported to Social Services.
You're probably right about torture ha ha,
support could be having a cuppa, listening, showing the family where the nearest park is for a kick around, that sort of thing.
