We support people across North Tyneside, Gateshead and Newcastle who have experienced and been affected by anti-social behaviour and some hate incidents, and we are looking for volunteers to provide a befriending and supporting role for victims. 

If you have previously been a victim of anti-social behaviour, a hate incident, or you simply want to support others in the community, our service could be for you! We want to hear from you if you are:

  • A good listener

  • Impartial and non-judgemental
  • Flexible and reliable         

As a volunteer, you will provide scheduled telephone support to a victim(s) on a regular basis, and you will also receive regular support around the work you’re doing.
