Volunteers are at the heart of everything we do. The King’s Trust couldn’t function without the support of thousands of volunteers across the UK, who are able to offer a vital network to young people facing significant barriers to jobs, education or training. 

Our Programme Delivery Volunteers work directly with groups of young people to help build and maintain their confidence, skills, motivation, and wellbeing. You might be helping Trust colleagues in the areas of planning, delivery or facilitation of group sessions and activities, bringing your expertise to enhance the experience for our young people.

In return for your valuable time, we provide the benefits of being part of a dedicated community of colleagues and volunteers, the satisfaction of directly impacting our success, and the undoubted personal development and pleasure that comes from working for the cause of, or directly with, children and young people, the majority of whom face significant barriers and have significant challenges to overcome.
