Children's Bereavement Support Volunteer
You would be placed with a child and would work therapeutically alongside them for one day only in a group setting.
What difference will you make?
You will see the difference you make to a child from how they are when they enter the building on arrival (which can be quiet, anxious and hesitant) to how they are when they leave at the end of the day which is usually happy, talking about their special person who died and asking if they can come back again!
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

We ask volunteers to have a working background of either working with children, counselling, bereavement, teaching or nursing skills.
What will you be doing?
We are a children's bereavement support charity called Holding On Letting Go. You would be placed to work alongside a bereaved child aged 6-17 years and give them coping strategies for their grief (training will be provided). We hold bereavement support days to children and their parent/carers. We ask all new volunteers to commit to at least 4 days a year. Our weekends are held in Kent. We pay mileage, provide free training and provide food and refreshments.
