About the Role
Volunteer Caseworkers play a vital role in supporting beneficiaries through personalised, one-to-one assistance. You’ll arrange phone or face‑to‑face conversations with those seeking help, understand their circumstances, and work with them to identify the right support options. You’ll type clear case reports, communicate with partner organisations, and ensure beneficiaries remain updated throughout.
This role is incredibly rewarding and ideal for someone who wants to make a meaningful and lasting impact in their community.
Responsibilities
Caseworkers are often the first point of contact for someone seeking assistance. You’ll listen without judgement, gather information, and assess what support is needed. You’ll then write a case report outlining recommendations, helping beneficiaries access financial, practical or emotional support. Your work may directly lead to life-changing outcomes — from securing funding for specialist disability equipment, arranging home adaptations, helping someone stay in their home, or signposting them to expert advice around benefits, housing, debt or mental health.

* Arranging phone or face‑to‑face conversations with potential beneficiaries
