Volunteering for CBBR
We only have 7 dogs on site, the rest are in foster care. The dogs on site are recent arrivals that are being assessed or ones with training/behavioural needs that we do not have fosters equipped to deal with.
We currently have volunteers come in during our open hours of Monday – Saturday between 9am – 1pm to do things like cleaning, walking etc.
To volunteer you first need to complete our health and safety induction. This involves reading our Health & Safety Manual, Policies & Procedures Manual plus a brief on-site induction. The time allowed for this will vary depending on the numbers on the day, but please allow 2 hours.
The induction is done at the rescue, 4 times a year at 9:15am on the first Friday & Saturday of the applicable month. See below for a list of the dates. Once the induction has been completed, you are required to shadow a senior volunteer while learning the ropes.
You do not need to attend both days, just pop along on the day that suits best.
If you are completing hours as part of a course requirement & need them completed faster than our next induction date, please let us know.
Induction Dates:
Friday 5th / Saturday 6th July 2024
Friday 4th / Saturday 5th October 2024
Friday 3rd / Saturday 4th January 2025
