Can you help us to help others?

We are always on the lookout for new volunteers, to help us ensure that the service we provide can remain free of charge. Would you like to give something back to your community, and meet new people in the process? Could you spare three hours every few weeks? STN is run entirely by volunteers in a wide variety of roles, including:
  • Readers
  • Editors
  • Recording technicians
  • Dispatch and returns operatives
  • Administrators 
  • Committee members
You can read more about these roles and contact our Volunteer Coordinator by calling 0114 2780440 or emailing: STN_Recruitment@sheffieldtalkingnews.org.uk.

The Sheffield Star recently included an article about our need for volunteers. From time to time we advertise specific vacancies with Voluntary Action Sheffield (VAS).
