Overview Our mission is to help people change the direction of their lives, grow as individuals, and live life to its full potential. Volunteers are essential to Change Grow Live, bringing valuable skills, for some lived experience, and passion that strengthen our teams, improve outcomes, help us break down barriers and support meaningful change for the people we support. We are committed to valuing, supporting, and developing our volunteers. Responsibilities At Change Grow Live we believe training is a great way to engage and connect with people who use our services. We also consider that having a well-trained workforce supports us to deliver the best possible outcomes. We offer a wide range of training programmes, which provide varied outcomes to learners. As a Volunteer Trainer, you will be helping people to complete training to help them access volunteering opportunities within services. This is often an enormous step in the journey of Change Grow Live learners, especially those who have previously struggled in traditional learning settings.
