volunteers wanted to work with young offenders


Recommended Posts

Southwark Youth Offending Service is in need of Panel Members and Mentors to

support young offenders and our community.

We need men and women aged 21 & above from all ethnicities and social backgrounds - we are, however, particularly keen to recruit male volunteers!


We want people who live or work in the borough of Southwark,

who are good at listening and who are reliable.


No experience needed!

Volunteers will get full training and will gain valuable work experience.


WHAT DO PANEL MEMBERS DO?

Youth Offender Panels deal with young people who commit crime using a restorative approach. They are led by trained volunteers, representing the community. Panels give victims a chance to say how the crime has affected them and what might help to put things right.



WHAT DO MENTORS DO?

Mentors are involved in Reparation activities with young offenders, enabling them to repair the harm caused by their offending behaviour. Mentors also support individual young offenders practically and emotionally.


DATES FOR YOU DIARY?

We will be interviewing and training mentors in October/ November 2018.

We will be interviewing and training panel members in the New Year 2019.


PLEASE CONTACT US FOR MORE INFORMATION AND/OR

AN APPLICATION PACK.

    • Hmmm, millions of animals are killed each year to eat in this country.  10,000 animals (maybe many more) reared to be eaten by exotic pets, dissected by students, experimented on by cosmetic and medical companies.  Why is this any different? Unless you have a vegan lifestyle most of us aren't in a position to judge.  I've not eaten meat for years, try not to buy leather and other animal products as much as possible but don't read every label, and have to live with the fact that for every female chick bred to (unaturally) lay eggs for me to eat, there will be male that is likely top be slaughtered, ditto for the cow/milk machines - again unnatural. I wasn't aware that there was this sort of market, but there must be a demand for it and doubt if it is breaking any sort of law. Happy to be proved wrong on anything and everything.
    • I don't know how spoillable food can be used as evidence in whatever imaginary CSI scenario you are imagining.  And yes, three times. One purchase was me, others were my partner. We don't check in with each other before buying meat. Twice we wrote it off as incidental. But now at three times it seems like a trend.   So the shop will be hearing from me. Though they won't ever see me again that's for sure.  I'd be happy to field any other questions you may have Sue. Your opinion really matters to me. 
    • If you thought they were off, would it not have been a good idea to have kept them rather than throwing them away, as evidence for Environmental Health or whoever? Or indeed the shop? And do you mean this is the third time you have bought chicken from the same shop which has been off? Have you told the shop? Why did you buy it again if you have twice previously had chicken from there which was off? Have I misunderstood?
    • I found this post after we just had to throw away £14 of chicken thighs from Dugard in HH, and probably for the 3rd time. They were roasted thoroughly within an hour of purchase. But they came out of the oven smelling very woofy.  We couldn't take a single bite, they were clearly off. Pizza for dinner it is then. Very disappointing.
