Volunteering with Relate
- Relate South Warwickshire has a team of volunteer receptionists who work at Warwick and Stratford, usually in the evenings, from 5.45 – 9.15 p.m.
- There are also occasional opportunities for volunteers to help with admin during the daytime. Volunteers receive an induction and training initially when they are selected. Ongoing specific training takes place at various times during the year. This is also an opportunity to meet other volunteers who work on different day and whom you’d not normally come into contact with.
