Volunteer with Us

We couldn’t do what we do without our volunteers. They have been a core part of the Centre’s ability to provide online and in-person support every week.

Volunteers are involved in our work in so many ways – from acting as interpreters, to befrienders, to lunch cooks, to hosting their own online sessions, to advising us on our fundraising and publicity. There may be other ways you can help us that we haven’t thought of: if there are, please let us know.

Please note that we do NOT have volunteer opportunities available in the evening/weekends.

Available Volunteering Positions:


In-person ESOL English Learning Support Volunteer

We are looking for volunteers to support our English learners in our Thursday morning English class. Volunteers sit with a small group of learners and assist them through the day’s activities of conversation, spelling, and writing. Volunteers are needed on Thursdays from 10am to 12pm at Church on the Corner.

If you are interested, please complete the following steps:

  1. Review the available volunteer opportunities above
  2. Sign our Safeguarding Code of Conduct
  3. Complete our Volunteer Application Form
  4. Email us at: info@islingtoncentre.co.uk

NOTE: We are incredibly moved by the volume of support we receive. While we wish we could connect with every person who offers their time, our small team is only able to reach out to those whose skills match our current immediate needs. If you don’t hear from us within two weeks, please know that we have filled our current openings, but we are so grateful for your willingness to help.

Client permissions
A key part of safeguarding is ensuring that we receive informed consent from our clients before sharing any of their work or photographs. We have created a form to ensure that clients have full control over how pictures or videos of them, or any work they have created, are shared. Before sharing any images, please download the form below and go through it with any affected client. If you have any questions, please contact us here.
