## Description

The Listening Place is a volunteer-led charity aiming to transform how we support people who feel suicidal. Our trained volunteers are part of a team delivering face-to-face, confidential, ongoing support to thousands of people each year.

We are looking for Helping Volunteers to join our team at our new site based near Liverpool Street. As a Helping Volunteer, you will be responsible for welcoming visitors onto our premises, providing a warm and welcoming atmosphere, and supporting our Listening Volunteers to help everything run smoothly.

We are looking for volunteers who have the empathy to greet distressed visitors, the willingness to undertake a variety of admin and other tasks, and the resilience to support their team. Our Helping Volunteers need to be proactive, self-starters, and team players with a basic understanding of IT. We ask for a weekly commitment of four hours for a period of at least six months.

We are primarily recruiting Helping Volunteers for our new site near Liverpool Street and our Hammersmith site. We also have limited vacancies available at our other sites in Pimlico and Kings Cross.
