VOLUNTEERING

By volunteering with us at the The Pickwell Foundation you’ll be joining an exciting and vibrant organisation, with an ambitious and expanding Refugee and Asylum support service across different governmental schemes. We offer meaningful connections, wrap-around support, guidance and kindness to people seeking sanctuary both in Northern Devon via our welcome hub and nationally through refugee sponsorship.

We offer training, expenses, guidance and supervision. You will be supported by an experienced staff member and have the opportunity to be part of the amazing, dedicated and passionate team of volunteers, staff and trustees.

Some example volunteer roles (where support is delivered via our welcome hub and/or through sponsorship groups)

  • Befriending

  • Job/benefits support

  • Activities support

  • English language support

  • Transport assistance

"It can feel quite helpless watching the news right now and reading the headlines in the media. Volunteering with the Pickwell Foundation has been a real gift. The team are super welcoming and there’s a whole host of jobs to suit everyone”.

- Alison Smith, Pickwell Foundation Volunteer
