We need Volunteers to set up & run monthly peer to peer support groups in Norfolk. Volunteers must be over 18 & bereaved by suicide for at least 2 years.

Our vision is that no one bereaved by suicide has to face their loss alone.

Volunteers will run peer to peer support groups to provide a safe and confidential space for those who have been bereaved to speak about their loss and experiences.


SoBS groups meet monthly and Volunteers will be asked to:

Work with two other volunteers to facilitate the monthly support group

Set up the venue to make it a welcoming and comfortable space

Offer refreshments for all those attending

Answer telephone and email queries from new and existing group members


In return SoBS offers:

Extensive training and full support for Volunteers

A group mobile phone and email account

Monthly Volunteer meetings for debriefing and communication purposes

Supervision for all Volunteers
