Meet & Greet / Reception (Odiham)

We are currently looking for volunteers to join our 'Meet & Greet' 121 reception team located in Odiham. We are looking for someone for Monday, Tuesday and Thursday evenings between 3:30pm and 7:45pm as well as someone who may be able to cover any evening on an ad hoc basis.  If you are free on any weekday late afternoon or evening and would like to help out occasionally, we'd love to hear from you!

Nothing too arduous as the aim of the role is to support our counsellors by meeting their clients and helping them feel at ease whilst they await their counselling session.

Role involves the following and a full induction will be given:

  • Three to four hours of your time per session. Be prepared to unlock the building and lock up at the end - you will be shown how to do this.
  • Ensuring the counsellor(s) have everything they need.
  • Meeting 2-5 clients, staying with them, making sure they are comfortable until their counselling session begins.
  • Being prepared to answer any questions from parents within guidance boundaries.
