Volunteer Telford

What is a Child Contact Centre? It is a friendly, safe and neutral environment where children can meet a parent or other family members they might not otherwise see. Shropshire Child Contact Centres is a registered charity.

Shropshire Child Contact Centres – SCCC – run three Supported Child Contact Centres in Shropshire, and are Accredited Members of the National Association of Child Contact Centres. 

SCCC members running the centres are trained volunteers. They are selected by interview, must give references and are DBS checked. Members operate within the SCCC code of practice at every centre.
We are looking for volunteers who can support the contact between child and family member.

The Telford (Wrekin) Contact Centre runs on a Saturday afternoon from 2pm to 4pm from Wellington Methodist Church, New Street, Wellington.

Snow Wardens are volunteers who play an active role in their community when the weather takes a turn for the worst.

They help clear side roads and pavements of snow and ice in their local area.  This will not only help your neighbours but also our more vulnerable residents who can't help themselves.

How much time you put in is up to you - all we ask is that you do as much as you can. Snow Wardens duties are seasonal and at times you will need to be reactive to the weather conditions.

What area you cover is up to you too. You can carry out your Snow Warden duties on your own street, housing estate or local area.
