Volunteer at The Bridge
We understand that you are giving up your time to work with us and our students, so we provide you with all the training necessary to do the role safely and efficiently.
Often, our volunteers have been out of a working environment for a long time, and these roles give those individuals the confidence to rejoin the workplace. This opportunity is a great way to give back to the community and to feel welcomed into a family.
Our safeguarding measures are in place to ensure each volunteer can work safely with our students, as they are our top priority.
Fundraising
We are always keen to hear about your fundraising ideas as we look to increase our impact and reach across our local communities. Your fundraising, regardless of how big or small, will aid us in supporting those without a voice.
The Bridge also hosts fundraising events throughout the year. We invite our community members to join us in celebrating and supporting the individuals who use our services. Please look out for more details on our social channels.
Application or Enquiry Details
Apply via email or give us a call, and we will invite you for a cup of tea and an informal discussion about why you would like to explore a fundraising idea or an opportunity to volunteer in Suffolk.
We work closely with corporate partners who share our values and want to make a difference in their communities. These partnerships provide an excellent opportunity for us to raise funds and awareness for our charity.
