Current volunteering opportunities

Please note that we are not currently inviting applications for listening service, SEE project and fundraising volunteers. (Please contact us by email (volunteering@osarcc.org.uk) to enquire about counselling placements.) This is likely to change later in the summer — please revisit our website later in the year.

Overview

Are you an empathetic, empowered woman who wants to support survivors of sexual violence, develop your skills, and join a diverse group of like-minded women?

Our volunteers play a vital role in delivering our services to survivors of sexual violence, and we have a variety of volunteering opportunities (most don’t require any previous experience). We are looking for women who are committed to OSARCC’s vision of a world free from sexual violence, and who identify with our core values. We also look for potential volunteers to be good communicators, empathetic, and self-aware about their own support needs. In return, we can offer a supportive environment in which to develop new and transferable skills, and the opportunity to make a real difference to people’s lives.

OSARCC is keen to ensure that the women who volunteer with us represent the communities we serve, and we welcome applications from women who are aged 18+.

All our volunteers are asked to complete our in-house training, which we deliver three times a year – our next training course starts in October. If you’d like to be considered for this, please submit your application form by 30 September (see below for how to apply). Currently, our training is delivered remotely, via Zoom, and thus we require trainees to have internet access, a laptop/tablet and a quiet, private space in which you can take part in the training.
