This week there are volunteering opportunities with Lambeth Education, AgeUK and the Bright Morning Star Prisons and Homeless Outreach. Even under Tier 4, volunteering safely is allowed - more information is available from https://www.gov.uk/volunteering/coronavirus-volunteering - and the volunteer co-ordinators for the roles below all confirm that volunteers will be in settings that meet coronavirus safety standards and will adapt to all or any further restrictions as needed.
Today, temperatures in London have continued below freezing, and the Mayor of London has written on his passion about ending homelessness in our city. He says:
The Government update on Covid-19 yesterday (30 December) confirmed no change to Lambeth's Tier 4 status.
It is now more important than ever we play our part and prevent the virus spreading.
What does that mean?
The Government's Kickstart programme is designed to help young people (16-24) who are currently on universal credit to develop the skills and experience they need to find work, through valuable six month job placements.
