Domestic Abuse Volunteer Support Services - an appeal for volunteer trustees and advisors


 Help Line: 01892 570538


CAN YOU HELP?

DAVSS WORKS ACROSS WEST KENT AND NEEDS:

CHARITY TRUSTEES AND
 VOLUNTEER DOMESTIC ABUSE ADVISORS

Are you looking for an opportunity to make a difference by supporting some of the most vulnerable people in your local community?

Significant numbers of dedicated people are already working with DAVSS providing vital support to women and men experiencing domestic abuse. 

In the past 3 years DAVSS has supported 940 clients involving 1137 children in West Kent. Referrals are increasing and we need your help. A recent comment from a client demonstrates the essential nature of the work we do:

“Without DAVSS I wouldn’t still be here – I couldn’t see a way out.”

Our Board is seeking additional trustees, particularly people with skills in the following areas:

  • Finance
  • Fundraising
  • Information technology
  • Partnership working

If you have expertise in these or any other areas which you feel might benefit the Board and are interested in knowing more about this opportunity, please contact our Chair of Trustees, Liz Jarvis for an informal chat on 01892 860306 or email e.jarvis1@sky.com

We are also looking for committed and enthusiastic volunteers, willing to train to join our friendly team of volunteer advisors.


For more information about this challenging and rewarding role, please contact the DAVSS office on 01892 502074 or email office@davss.org.uk and Sue Dunn, our Chief Executive will contact you direct.
