JAC is committed to engaging with young people, encouraging them to make positive choices
We have volunteering opportunities across the organisation in the following areas: administration, finance, fundraising, cleaning, equine, small animal care, gardening, mentoring young people, art and craft, schools work, detached work, DIY, construction and much, much more. We fit our vacancies around people’s passions, skills and experience. Let us know if there is something that you would like to do. Due to the knowledge required and our limited staff time as a resource, we are unable to accept volunteers for working with the animals that do not have previous experience with caring for animals (horse experience and small animal care respectively) or who cannot work independently on tasks. 12-14 year olds are unable to volunteer in the mentoring side of our work as the ages ranges overlap.
If "YES", please provide details of all offences on a separate sheet marked "confidential" which can be emailed to [email protected] or handed in on-site. Criminal convictions will be taken into consideration only when the conviction is relevant. Declaring a criminal conviction will not prevent you from being considered for a volunteering post.
Under 14s must have parental consent to volunteer. JAC will confirm parental consent independently before accepting any volunteering placements.
If giving parental consent, you also agree to: “I will inform Just Around the Corner of any changes to my child’s medical condition or individual needs (including any emotional wellbeing or mental health issues which may affect their volunterring), agreement to medical treatment and any changes to emergency contact numbers.”
