| Here’s how you can make a huge difference to a young ex-prisoner’s life – by becoming a volunteer with the Community Chaplaincy Project.
Volunteers come from a wide variety of backgrounds and faiths and are:
- interviewed and selected on the basis of their suitability to act as ‘mentors’
- asked to commit to a period of at least one year
- provided with a comprehensive training and support package (training is approved by Rainer, specialists in the mentoring field)
- asked to ‘be-friend’ a young man of the same faith who may return to a faith community not far from them
- keen to develop their abilities and talents in a way which adds to their lives personally as well to their community.
Since starting in 2005 we have trained over 100 volunteers and helped over 70 young men in making a fresh start. As you can see from the map below, our volunteers are based all over London.
Do you feel you have what it takes to make a difference? |
