We’re also passionate about the health, wellbeing, learning and development of our voluntary team. See our Volunteer with us FAQs for more information.

Volunteering at Star House was always varied, fun, and satisfying. I helped the team out on a number of painting days, and it felt like we made a huge difference!

Volunteer FAQs

How do I apply?

Our volunteers are all 16 or over.

What happens after I’ve applied?

When we have your application, we’ll arrange a time to discuss our opportunities with you in more detail.

All Sheffield Futures’ volunteers who support Youth Clubs or our Wellbeing Café are required to complete pre-volunteer checks including an acceptable enhanced DBS certificate for volunteering with children and adults (which is repeated after three years) and appropriate references.

Depending on the type of opportunity, volunteers may also need to complete some relevant training before starting with us.

An observation may also be required during the first volunteer session to ensure that both you and Sheffield Futures are happy to move forward with the volunteering opportunity.

Do you offer placements or work experience?

We don’t currently have any placements or work experience opportunities but we are hoping to start offering something soon. Keep checking back for updates!
