 Could you be an NSPCC 'Speak Out Stay Safe' Volunteer?
The NSPCC is looking for Lambeth residents to be Speak out Stay Safe Volunteers, who visit primary schools in their neighbourhood to help protect a generation of children from abuse and neglect.
In 2022 the NSPCC's Speak out Stay safe volunteers returned to primary schools in person. They are looking for new volunteers to help protect a generation of children from abuse and neglect. As a Speak out Stay safe volunteer, you will visit primary schools to deliver Speak out Stay safe workshops that teach children about the different types of abuse and how they can speak out and stay safe.
Speak out Stay safe workshops are age-appropriate and memorable and need an energetic and enthusiastic person to deliver them. You’ll work alongside other Speak out Stay safe volunteers to make sure at the end of each session the children feel empowered and know who they can speak out to if they are worried.
