Location: National – Across Scotland (Home Based)
If you are seeking a fulfilling opportunity to volunteer within an extraordinary team that will aid in your personal growth and success, then this role is tailored for you. Volunteering for our Self-Harm Network service allows you to begin your day with the knowledge that your efforts truly impact lives positively.
We are in the process of expanding our team and are in search of dedicated volunteers who bring value to our mission. Your distinctive insights and understanding acquired from managing your mental health challenges will be highly valued; we acknowledge and appreciate the valuable and applicable lessons learned from past life experiences. With enthusiasm and empathy, you will contribute authenticity and optimism towards empowering individuals.
Self-Harm is an individual response to various factors, such as emotional distress, detachment, trauma, or stress. We collaborate closely with individuals struggling with self-harm, involving their support networks as well. By comprehending the motivations behind self-harm, we explore coping mechanisms and foster self-esteem.
As a volunteer, you will assist our team in managing an online web chat service dedicated to supporting individuals who self-harm. Your role will involve ensuring the smooth operation of the chat platform and providing a comforting presence for individuals navigating their self-harm experiences. The chat service operates from 6pm to 10pm, seven days a week.
Previous experience is not a prerequisite for volunteering; all that is needed is a positive mindset and a commitment to promoting mental health and well-being among individuals who self-harm.
We are especially interested in volunteers with personal experience in self-harm, who can share their journey of recovery and offer hope as a role model.
As a mental health charity, the well-being of our team members is of utmost importance to us. Rest assured, you will be part of a welcoming team that provides a supportive atmosphere to help you thrive in your role, along with comprehensive training to ensure you feel prepared and confident.
By volunteering with Penumbra, you will undoubtedly be inspired by exceptional individuals every day. Our aim is to support your personal volunteering journey, enabling you to acquire new skills and experiences while fostering your growth and development.
