Supporting a young person living in care. It is a befriending role that is built over time.
ONLY AVAILABLE TO UK HOME STUDENTS
IV's take an interest into the lives, hopes and concerns of a child or young person, and are there to have fun!. Becoming an IV is all about having fun! We match our volunteers with young people who have similiar interests and ideas of how to have fun! Some examples of the activities IV plan include:
- Going Bowling
- Grabbing a bite to eat
- Going for a walk
- Having a kickabout
And much more! The idea is to become a friend to a young person, and that would include being a supportive and consistent figure in a young person's life.
