Summary

We are looking for women who feel passionately about ending violence against women and girls by volunteering on our 24/7 Rape & Sexual Abuse Support Line.

Detailed description

Rape Crisis South London (RASASC) works in partnership with Rape Crisis England and Wales on the 24/7 Rape and Sexual Abuse Support Line. Support line volunteers provide telephone support, information and signposting to survivors of sexual violence aged 16+ across the country. We are open 24 hours a day. Shifts are 3 hours long and volunteers can choose which shift to sign up to, to fit in around any other commitments. We provide all our volunteers with an accredited training course from the Open College Network. For this next round of training we are actively recruiting women who are available to attend training during week days. All our training is online, and you can volunteer from home providing that you have a private quiet space to take calls in. The post is open to female applicants only as the role is deemed to be a genuine occupational requirement under Schedule 9, Paragraph 1 of the Equality Act 2010.
