We are looking for Volunteer Counsellors who can work remotely.

You will either be in training undertaking your final year, hold a psychotherapy/counselling degree or have a Level 4 Diploma in counselling.  We work with a diverse mix of women from all walks of life and backgrounds and require counsellors who are experienced, willing to undertake ongoing CPD to develop the ability to work with the women who attend Women's Work, and who are able to commit to a minimum of 2 hours per week for 12 months minimum.

The work will require you to be off site, using the phone to offer counselling to the women.  This will require you to have undergone telephone training or be willing to undertake such training.  The women you support will be Derbyshire based, but you will work from your home location.

"I just wanted to let you know about the counselling I have been having with Agnieszka. I wanted to make it known that she is doing an amazing job. She is still studying but I feel that she is an expert and that she has been doing this for a long time. Her persona makes me feel relaxed and it doesn't feel as if she is doing a job, but that she is caring from her heart as a friend. Already I feel stronger. "

If you are interested and would like to know more or apply please contact the Counselling Coordinator on 01332 242525

General Volunteers

We are also looking for general volunteers to help deliver our services in our headquarters. Our volunteers come from all walks of life with an array of skills and experience and many have benefited from the support of Women’s Work themselves as peer mentors.  Being a volunteer is a great way to gain skills and experience which can help with securing future employment.
