  3. Complete a police check.
  4. Attend a 5 full day training programme.

A Police background check is required for this role.

Time commitment:

Once trained we ask volunteers to commit to working at least 4 hours a week.
Our expectation is that volunteers will stay with CAB for at least two years.

Getting started:
The first step is to express your interest by filling out the form below. We will then put you in touch directly with the organisation for more information on the role and how to proceed.
