Care4Calais UK Volunteer

We need volunteers to join our committed, friendly team operating in the Stansted and Epping area. From organising donations and delivering aid, to providing friendship and support to refugees, your help will make a big difference to the vulnerable people we work with. When refugees first arrive in the UK it can be bewildering for them. Navigating a new country and a foreign language is a big challenge, made worse if you have no money and are scared and alone. Our volunteers meet up with refugees to provide a friendly face and helping hand. We collect and distribute clothes, shoes, mobile phones and other essentials. 

What skills do I need?

No formal qualifications required.

Online training will be provided.

Skills: Dedicated, caring, empathetic, committed and proactive.
