Time commitment,
Our roles are as flexible as possible to suit your availability.
You could volunteer every week, support us at a one-off event, or somewhere in between. We can adjust your time with us if your circumstances change.
Volunteering if you have conviction
At Liam mindset, we pride ourselves on being inclusive and welcoming volunteers with a range of life experiences. Having a criminal record doesn’t automatically make you unable to volunteer with us. We’ll talk to you about your conviction and anything else you’d like us to know, for example the circumstances surrounding the conviction or how things have changed since.
Occasionally a conviction may impact some aspects of the volunteer role, but we recognise the skills you bring as an individual and we’ll do our best to find a suitable role for you or make minor adjustments to the one you applied for.
