CSV is running an innovative pilot project which will match volunteers with families where there are children on the child protection register.

Bromley Social Services Departments working with children on the Child Protection Register and Children in Need will be using these very special volunteers to complement the relationships and activities of their staff and other professionals in relation to vulnerable children.

Social workers don’t always have time to visit families as often as they would like, nor have they routinely involved volunteers in work with vulnerable children. CSV will recruit, train, match and support volunteers then monitor the extent to which they are able to support social workers in their professional task.  

This is a demanding role! CSV is looking for adult volunteers who can understand the difficulties faced by these families and to deal with them in a supportive way. Volunteers will also need the skill to work closely with social workers and the time to visit their matched family several times a week for a minimum six month period. Volunteers in Child Protection will receive training and support in their role.

It is important that volunteers live within easy reach of Bromley so that frequent visits to a family can be easily achieved. It also helps if the volunteers know about activities and services in the local community.

This is an exciting project that is attracting the interest of the media because it has never been tried before in this country. We want to make it work and help to keep children safe.
