Do you want to make a meaningful contribution to help make night-time in Nottingham a safer place? Can you listen, care and help?

The Street Pastors are recruiting for more volunteers to join their team making a real difference, every shift.

Working in small teams, you will patrol Nottingham City Centre on Friday and Saturday nights between the hours of 10pm to 3am,

provide invaluable support to door staff, the Police and other emergency services and are a well-respected, valued part of the
night-time response team.

As a Street Pastor, you will hand out preventative supplies such as water, lollipops and flip flops and provide emergency
first-aid when someone’s night out takes a turn for the worst. You will ensure people get home safely, provide a listening ear
and signpost people for help and support with 3rd parties where appropriate.

The Street Pastors are based out of the Malt Cross in Nottingham City Centre which acts as the base, you will meet here before
heading out each shift. We also provide lots of opportunities to meet up with the entire Street Pastor team to provide training,
support and social opportunities to continue your development and enjoyment of volunteering. We would ask that you commit to at
least 1 shift per month.

Due to the nature of the project, in order to join the Street Pastors, you need to be over 18, be a practicing Christian and have
positive reference from the leader of your church. We follow rigorous safer recruitment processes to ensure the protection of
children, young people, and adults at risk. All applicants will be subject to enhanced DBS checks, reference checks, and thorough
vetting as part of our commitment to safeguarding.
