Volunteer Telford

Homestarts helps local families with young children feel supported, listened to and less alone.  Volunteer opportunities include one-to-one family support, helping at our groups, and supporting fundraising activities and administration.

Your time can help parents build confidence and give children a positive start.

Full training and ongoing support are provided.

1:1 support and group roles involve relevant safeguarding checks.

We will help you find a volunteering role that suits your interests and availability.

Telford Together with Refugees is a volunteer-led small charity.  Established in January 2025, we organise our offer into 7 pillars of activity: Help with Basics, Opportunity to Learn, Access to Exercise, Wellbeing Activities, Advice and Information, Help in a Crisis, and Generating Resources.

We have a range of volunteer opportunities supporting our work with people new into our local community, specifically those who are seeking asylum or are refugees. 

If you have time to offer, we will seek to utilise that by matching you to a role that will make a difference and prove rewarding to you too. 

This could be through befriending, learning activities and English classes, sport and exercise, fundraising events, donations management, charity administration, volunteer recruitment or another activity that suits your talents and interests.
