Barnardo’s Befrienders volunteer with young people a 1:1 basis, offering practical assistance and emotional support to build their self-confidence, coping mechanisms and positive relationships. The support could be focused on a particular need, such as confidence building, or it could be more focused around supporting the young person to access local community groups. They are looking for volunteers with a passion for making a difference in young people’s lives, with a friendly and approachable attitude and an ability to engage young people, empowering them to take steps towards improving their situation and achieving their goals. There are roles across Fife, and full training and support is provided.
