The work of Speke CAB would not be possible without our volunteers. Nationally 90% of CAB workers are volunteers. There are many ways to get involved. You could train to be an adviser, help streamline the office admin systems, or sit on the management comittee and help with fundraising, publicity or our social policy work.

All our volunteer advisers are fully trained. You do not need to have any particular qualification or experience, but the following abilities:

• a good listener and open minded
• able to work with clients to achieve results
• read complex information and explain it
• do basic maths
• can work as a team member
• can commit yourself to a certain number of hours each week
• support equal opportunities

Voluntary work for the CAB gives good experience for paid employment. You'll get 100% support, full training and your expenses paid. We are comitted to equal opportunities for our workers and clients, and welcome volunteers regardless of race, gender, sexuality or disabilities.

If you wish to apply for the post of General Adviser, please contact Andrew Wilson to arrange an informal chat and a visit to the bureau.
