Make a real difference in your community
Are you passionate about helping others live safer, healthier, more independent lives? Join our team at Waythrough and support people facing challenges around mental health, substance use, housing or domestic abuse. This is more than just a job – it’s a chance to build meaningful relationships and create lasting change.
As a Volunteer Administrator with Aquarius, you will play an important role in supporting the smooth day-to-day running of our services. You will provide valuable administrative support to staff, helping to create an organised, welcoming and supportive environment for colleagues, volunteers and people accessing our services.
Working alongside the team, you will assist with a range of administrative tasks, including answering telephone calls, managing appointments, preparing resources and maintaining accurate records. You will also help ensure that enquiries are handled appropriately and that confidentiality is maintained at all times.
This is a rewarding volunteering opportunity for someone who wants to make a positive difference, develop new skills and contribute to a service supporting adults and families affected by alcohol, drugs and related challenges. Full induction, training and ongoing support will be provided.
We are looking for a friendly, reliable and understanding individual who is passionate about helping others and wants to contribute positively to our service. You will be comfortable communicating with a range of people in a non-judgemental and respectful way, recognising the importance of confidentiality, appropriate boundaries and valuing diversity.
You will be willing to learn, follow guidance and ask for support whenever needed, while also using your own initiative where appropriate. You should have a good level of self-awareness and be committed to treating everyone with dignity and respect.
You do not need to have previous experience in a similar role, as training and support will be provided. Lived experience of substance misuse, gambling-related challenges or supporting a family member affected by these issues would be welcomed, but is not essential.
We ask for a minimum commitment of four hours, with consistency being important to help us provide reliable support to the service.
We value the people who make a difference every day. Alongside meaningful work, you’ll enjoy:

We have 260 services around England – and nearly 3,500 amazing staff and volunteers who run them. Every year our services support around 130,000 people.
