Right now we really need more volunteers and want to hear from anyone interested in finding out more about volunteering at the CAB.
A LITTLE ABOUT WHAT WE VOLUNTEERS DO.
Clients contact the CAB with an enquiry about anything. We work with them by listening carefully, and researching their rights and responsibilities and the services available to them. We explain the information so that they understand their options and make their own decisions.
The feedback we get from CAB volunteers is that they learn something new every time they volunteer, and they find providing the CAB service rewarding and purposeful.
The duty roster is flexible, enabling volunteers to work around family and other commitments (most volunteers give about 4 hours/week). This can be helping clients on the phone, by email, or face to face.
Volunteers can also help with other aspects of running the bureau e.g. in publicity, training, social media or governance. There are lots of opportunities to contribute existing skills, and to develop new ones.
To make sure all volunteers are supported to be effective in their role, we provide a programme of learning and development. This includes an induction period and mentoring programme, as well as ongoing learning opportunities and peer support. A key area of learning, especially for new volunteers, is how to use the CAB website to research information for clients.
IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR SOMETHING INTERESTING AND WORTHWHILE TO DO, WE REALLY WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU. SO GIVE US A CALL on 09 407 9829 & ASK FOR AN INFORMATION PACK.
OR COME IN AND HAVE A CHAT. Open 9.30 a.m. - 3.30 p.m. Monday to Thursay & Friday 9.30 a.m. to 12.30 p.m. You'll find us at 6 Cobham Road, Procter Library Building, Kerikeri (across the road from the Kerikeri Fire Station).
