Volunteering

Our volunteers are key to the smooth running of BRBC; without them we couldn’t operate. Recognition of this is reflected in our varied and interesting volunteer support programme, which includes recognised skills and qualifications such as first aid, fire marshal training, and Makaton.


We are always keen to listen to what our volunteers feel would benefit them and will look for training opportunities to suit need and interest.

If you can't commit to volunteering at a weekly stay and play session, but have expertise in areas such as marketing and digital design please do get in touch.

Board of trustees
Big Red Bus Club is equity led, being primarily made up of users and volunteers. We would particularly love to hear from you if you have VCS or fundraising experience.

If you would like to volunteer at BRBC, please contact nichola@thebigredbusclub.com for more details.

What our volunteers say…

‘I love volunteering at the Big Red Bus Club. As a first time mum, it has been amazing to be able to bring my daughter along and help create stay and play sessions with other mums and volunteers. The community here is incredible and there is always a welcoming smiley face to greet you.’

‘Volunteering at the Big Red Bus Club has helped me to gain confidence and have a new appreciation of my skills, after taking a break from work to be a full-time mum. I now feel ready to go back to work part time, which means I can still enjoy coming to do my weekly stay and play session.’

‘I love running sessions, guided both by what my child likes to do and the input of the regulars who come along. I have met some amazing people who will be friends for life!’
