Volunteer with Aspire, become one of our new Supporting Sisters

Aspire Learning Support and Wellbeing will soon be training new volunteers to assist in providing our award-winning women’s support and wellbeing services.

Women who complete our comprehensive and supportive volunteer training programme become ‘Supporting Sisters,’ and have the opportunity to further specialise their knowledge and experience delivering women’s support services.

Roles our Supporting Sisters provide include:

  • Listeners, Peer Mentors and Befrienders

  • Group Leads and Group Support

  • Domestic Abuse and Stay Safe (suicide and self harm) Champions

We also offer volunteer opportunities within our Credit Union and financial support services, as course Student Representatives and with administration and reception.

Women have signed up to our volunteer programme for all sorts of reasons including:

  • Learning new skills

  • Gaining valuable experiences
