Race Equality First are looking for Volunteer Champions to help promote their message and become equality advocates.

As well as a Hate Crime and Discrimination service, Race Equality First also provide an Advocacy service to support people from a Black, Asian or Minority Ethnic background.
REF are looking for a number of volunteers who can speak a range of languages, who would be willing to offer their time and support with translation for their Advocacy service. This would be on an ad-hoc basis, as and when required. Your contact details would be added and stored on a volunteers database and REF would get in touch with you if they needed assistance with your specified language(s). This could be through relaying some important information to a client, translating some literature or helping our beneficiaries understand and complete forms (for example). You would not be required to assist any of our beneficiaries alone and would be working closely with REF's Case Workers and Advice Service Managers. Volunteers will have the opportunity to be added to a closed Facebook group for staff and volunteers, as a place to share information, tools and resources. Our volunteers will also be offered training on Hate Crime and Discrimination.
