Volunteer Opportunities in Bristol
Borderlands
Borderlands is a charity that works with people who are asylum seekers and refugees. Through various projects, they support their members to improve their lives and the community in which they live. Their work at Borderlands would not be possible without the contribution of their large team of skilled volunteers.
Borderlands are looking for mentors!
Borderlands are looking for volunteer mentors for our new round of training which we will run in September. The training will take place over four Wednesday evening. Our mentors are fantastic volunteers who offer emotional and practical support to refugees and asylum seekers in Bristol. If you are interested, please fill out this application form.
Bristol Signing Support
Bristol Reporting Solidarity are welcoming new volunteers on to their Wednesday morning sessions! They attend Patchway Police station every Wednesday morning to offer a friendly face and a chat to asylum seekers having to report to the Home Office as part of their bail conditions. They also offer signposting to services provided by others, for example foodbanks, and destitution support.
There are 2 shifts on Wednesdays, 9.30-11.30 and 11.30-14.00 . Two volunteers are required for each shift.
If you are interested in signing up then email them at [email protected] and check out their Facebook page.
