Circles South West - Volunteers

Who we are

Circles South West is an independent charity established in 2010. We work in close partnership with health, police, probation and youth offending services, uniquely providing Circles of Support and Accountability across South West England. We are the only recognised partner of the Ministry of Justice and statutory agencies/MAPPA, providing specialist support and accountability to enhance the management of people who have sexually offended in the community.

Volunteering

Volunteering with Circles South West is a challenging but rewarding role and people become involved for a variety of reasons. Perhaps you are looking to make a valuable contribution to your community or you are interested in pursuing a career in criminal justice. Whatever the reason we have a number of projects running across the South West for you to become involved in.

Depending on your location we offer the opportunity to volunteer in:

Community Circles

Young People’s Circles

Circles for people with Intellectual Disabilities

Through the Gate/Prison Circles

All of these projects place the onus on support and accountability; allowing our core member to work towards an offence free life and reducing sexual harm in your community.
