Cruelty
to children must stop. FULL STOP. NSPCC
Appeal for Volunteers Part of this initiative will be to recruit people representing the true diversity of young children living in the care of Sheffield's local authority homes and establishments. "Many of the vulnerable children are from residential units across the city, others are in foster care," Joy explains, "What we need is local people reflecting the diversity of under represented cultures to help these young children address fears of alienation. We need to reach Burngreave people who have the time, true commitment and energy to become a volunteer. These vulnerable children need guidance, support and friendship." This appeal is for people who can help build a trusting relationship with those who don't experience cultural belonging, who lack confidence and self esteem. All expenses and full training accredited by the Open College Network are both sponsored by the NSPCC.
