Support Group Volunteer

Mind Warriors (Addlestone) CIC is a free local emotional and mental health support group. We meet twice in person as to local venues. These sessions are run hybrid so that those that are unable to attend in person may attend virtually. We meet once a month in nature for a gentle nature health walk and to enjoy the outdoors together. It offers a safe, caring and non‑judgemental space to chat and connect.

You can expect:

• friendly meet‑ups with cuppas and free refreshments
• guest speakers
• mindfulness activities
• a relaxed, welcoming space

Who it is for:

• adults who want community support for their emotional and mental health
• anyone looking for connection, tools and understanding

As a volunteer with Mind Warriors (Addlestone) CIC, you will become part of a welcoming and supportive team that is passionate about improving emotional and mental health and reducing isolation within the local community. The role offers opportunities to develop valuable skills in communication, active listening, empathy, teamwork, and community engagement, while gaining a greater understanding of emotional and mental health.

You would also have the opportunity to join us in local events such as awareness events and community fetes etc. in order to raise awareness.

Volunteers play a vital role in helping us create safe, inclusive spaces where people feel heard, supported, and connected. By supporting our sessions and participants, you will be directly contributing to the positive impact Mind Warriors (Addlestone) CIC has on the lives of local residents and helping us reach more people who may be struggling and in need of support.

What skills do I need?

We're seeking volunteers to support the group on one Monday evening and/ or one Thursday evening a month.

You'll need to be approachable, empathetic and passionate about supporting others. As a volunteer you'll help to set up the room for the group, help attendees to sign in and be there to provide support as needed throughout the session.
