Help keep children safe by volunteering to deliver NSPCC’s 'Speak Out. Stay Safe' workshops in local primary schools
Speak Out. Stay Safe is a safeguarding programme for children aged 5 to 11 years old and is available to all primary schools across Wiltshire, Swindon and BANES. Last year, the NSPCC delivered our Speak Out. Stay Safe programme to over 3,000 primary schools across the UK.
The Speak out Stay safe programme helps children, in an age-appropriate way, to understand:
- abuse in all its forms and how to recognise signs of abuse
- that abuse is never a child’s fault and that they have the right to be kept safe
- where to get help and the sources of help available to them, including our Childline service
Through our workshops, children learn about different types of abuse and how to get help if or when they need it. With the help of our mascot Buddy, NSPCC volunteers help them identify safe adults they can talk to if they are ever worried about themselves or a friend.
We are looking for new volunteers to join our team and help deliver face-to-face workshops in schools. Full training and on-going support is provided.
We are particularly looking for volunteers with the following qualities and experience:
- Passionate about helping young people and children.
- Great communication skills.
- Empathetic and perceptive.
- Good planning and organisational skills
- Able to think on your feet.
- Works well within a team.
- Aged over 16.
