Glasgow, United Kingdom Rightthere Full time

About The Role We are recruiting volunteer mentors with a kind and empathetic nature to support adults (18+). They will be supporting individuals who are being assisted in our short‑term housing, supported accommodation and outreach programmes across the Greater Glasgow, South Lanarkshire and Edinburgh areas. Our community mentoring programme encourages personal growth, social connection and sustainable integration within communities for those we support. As a volunteer you will be fully trained by our Volunteer Coordinators, who will get to know your passions and interests, allowing you to be suitably matched with one of the adults we support. We’ll provide guidance and support every step of the way. Main duties and responsibilities Develop good communication and working relationships with mentees, other mentors and Right There team members. Support mentees in the local community. Provide appropriate levels of high‑quality support to mentees. Accurately record matters relating to mentees and report as appropriate. Signpost and refer to other agencies as appropriate. Ensure you adopt a person‑centred approach and participate in reflective practice. Our values make us who we are and define our actions and behaviours every day. We expect volunteers to uphold and represent our organisation in a way that reflects our values and person‑centred way of working. Our volunteer mentors are expected to dedicate up to 3 hours per week or fortnight with their mentee, taking part in activities and building community connections. Whether it’s joining a local walking group, visiting a community garden or sharing a cuppa at a neighbourhood café, the possibilities are endless Sessions can be held virtually if needed; however we encourage face‑to‑face meetups to create more meaningful experiences. All activities are funded; we only need you to be a friendly face and a listening ear and be committed to spending dedicated time with your mentee. About Us We are Right There, a charity that recently celebrated our 200th anniversary. We provide tailored support for people, at home, and in the community. We are here for people who are living with the effects of homelessness, poverty, substance use, or family breakdowns. Last year we supported almost 4,000 individuals, helping to prevent them from becoming homeless or separated from the people they love. Every person’s story is unique, and everyone’s route home is different – it doesn’t matter what the situation is – we’re not here to judge, only to help. #J-18808-Ljbffr
