Volunteers are asked to share one to two hours a week with their little brother/sister. The initial commitment is for one year.
All volunteers are carefully screened and receive training and support throughout the friendship. The young people involved are aged 10-18 years and are from a variety of backgrounds, they would benefit from developing a friendship with a caring adult outside of their family. Through this friendship 'bigs' can inspire young people to brighter futures and positive development.
Volunteers and young people are matched based on common interests/hobbies and complementary personalities. Together, you can decide on the type of activities that you would like to do; go for coffee, play sport, do arts and crafts, play computer games, listen to music....have fun!
