Telford After Care Team CIO and Branches TACT are a dedicated support charity helping the people of Telford and Wrekin who are struggling with mental health and/or addiction issues.  We run a drop in facility for anyone who needs help between the hours of 9.00am to 5.00pm Monday to Friday.

Our staff all have lived experience of mental health/addiction/the justice system/social services etc.  It’s our company pledge that we help people to realise their potential and help others in a safe, encouraging environment.  Strickland House is a friendly, lively and non-judgmental place.

We offer volunteering opportunities in Support Work, Reception Desk, Café, Gardening, Facilitating groups, Administration, Creative Writing, Singing and much more.

AFC Telford are looking to recruit more volunteers to help on match days at the Telford Ground.

Would you like to be part of a friendly team of volunteers, and can you spare a few hours on Saturdays and sometimes during the week, for home games only?

Not every game requires a full steward crew and there are occasions when we need people to cover illness etc. for our regular staff; if you can’t commit to every game don’t worry, once we have a full team, others can cover you once in a while so we can be flexible.

Are you the right person for the role?
