Our fosterers carry out this role with support from their local branch or centre.
Most of our fosterers care for one or two cats at a time and enjoy providing lots of TLC to those cats, who have been pre-loved or have had a difficult start in life.

Shannon Trust fulfils an unmet need around adult learning, supporting people who’ve fallen through the cracks in formal education.
We know a lot of people have had negative learning experiences in the past, so our programme is designed to be different, with no exams and no classrooms. Our unique, evidence-based Turning Pages reading manuals and Count Me In numeracy manuals are used by thousands of learners in prisons and the community to improve reading skills.
Prison volunteers live near to their local prison so that they can visit about once a month during the working week to nurture the growth of the Shannon Trust in their prison. They help unlock the power of reading by offering advice, guidance, training and support to prison staff and prisoner mentors who help other prisoners to improve their skills 1 to 1.
We are looking for volunteers who are able to give a regular, reliable commitment for ideally two years and able to deliver engaging training to groups of people in prisons. Volunteers do not need to be teachers or qualified traininers, full training will be given. Due to the nature of the role, prison security vetting will be required.
We provide training for the role via e-learning and 4 training sessions which are a mix of live, online and group training

We’ll buddy you with an established volunteer who can support you in the initial few weeks.
You will be part of our WhatsApp group which includes other volunteers and the office team, so if you are ever unsure on how to help someone, others can help. Members of the WhatsApp group are happy to be contacted out of hours so very available if needed.

Maker Keti Enterprises help women and kids get empowered by the awareness of their own abilities. In Nepal, as with most parts of the world, girls are not encouraged to use tools. This leads to people, especially women, to not realise their full potential and to not break stereotypes and preconceived notions of their own abilities.
Maker Keti Enterprises conduct DIY workshops with women and kids where they use simple, hand tools, gaining more confidence within themselves and appreciation of their abilities. Starting from this year, we are launching a free online platform called Sipalu Sister featuring videos educating on various life skills from tool use to first aid. These videos are presented simply and in easy to understand Nepali. They hope to reach thousands of Nepalis, especially women living in rural areas, for whom this kind of information is not yet available.
For their latest project, Sipalu Sister, the goal is to reach out to rural Nepalis (especially women) to help them learn critical life skills so that they can be independent and confident in their decision making. It is an online platform, so marketing it on social media will be key. As the literacy rate among rural Nepalis is low, the marketing strategy needs to work even for those who cannot read.
