Become a Nightstop Volunteer

Yes, we have a thorough screening and referral process to keep you and the young people safe

Volunteers choose which evenings they would like to host on a flexible basis, there is no pressure and can do as much or as little as you choose.

No, we provide a comprehensive recruitment process including full training, home visits and DBS checks.

A private bedroom, access to a shower and washing machine, breakfast, evening meal and sometimes a packed lunch. We will cover the expenses incurred.

We will check in with you and the young person daily, and keep you updated about plans for moving on.

As long as your home is clean, comfortable and has all the relevant safety features such as working smoke alarms and a private spare room then it’s perfect.

You need to be kind, compassionate, non-judgmental, patient, reliable, willing to uphold boundaries and good at listening. Don’t worry, it may seem like a daunting experience taking on the host journey but our training will tell you everything you need to know. We’re always available to support and develop our wonderful volunteer hosts.
