Volunteering
Volunteers make a vital contribution to our work. Our volunteers offer their skills, knowledge and time to a variety of community safety initiatives, including home safety visits, community initiatives, heritage and education events, road safety and crime reduction activity. Their efforts make a real difference to the people of Essex.
Why volunteer with us?
Do you enjoy meeting new people and having new challenges?
Do you have spare time that you want to use to make your community safer?
Are you able to make a commitment and a difference?
Would you like to experience professional training that will benefit all aspects of your life?
Would you like to build on existing skills and develop new ones?
Do you have a passion for making people safer in Essex
If you're able to answer 'yes' to these questions, then volunteering with us may be just what you're looking for.
Although the roles are unpaid, we provide out of pocket expenses such as travel, and you will receive training and be provided with appropriate clothing.
