We are the only UK-wide charity dedicated solely to tackling child sexual abuse. We work to prevent abuse from happening in the first place - and to prevent it from happening again if it already has. 

We work with all those affected by abuse including adult male and female abusers; young people with harmful sexual behaviour; children with concerning sexual behaviours; victims of abuse and other family members. But we also work in families and with adults and young people where there has been no abuse, to help them keep themselves and others as safe as possible.

Our vision is is a world in which children's right to live free from sexual abuse and exploitation becomes a reality. Since 1992, we've been at the forefront of innovative services working with adults to keep children safe.

Student Volunteer for Research Project

Bromsgrove, Worcestershire
Temporary, part-time

In 2022 we will mark our 30^th anniversary and we want to document the history of The Lucy Faithfull Foundation since the charity was founded in 1992.

This includes a review of all the annual reports from 1992 to 2021 to extract service details and other notable events so that they can be summarised on a timeline.

Depending on the time available, the volunteer might also be able to assist with other aspects of the history project that include:

• the collation of testimonies and summaries from staff, trustees, and patrons
• the integration into the timeline of significant key milestones relating to attitudes and responses to child sexual abuse

We anticipate that this work will be most suited to a student, with excellent written English skills, Word and Excel experience, and an analytical mind who will enjoy assisting the Director of Finance with piecing together the individual elements of this project into a logical order to create a single summary document of LFF’s history.

The volunteer will work closely with the Director of Finance in the Finance office at our Bromsgrove headquarters and tasks will be agreed on a session-by-session basis with feedback provided and an opportunity for suggestions and creative ideas to be exchanged.

LFF has safeguarding and volunteer policies to ensure that volunteers adhere to LFF values and that we properly support volunteers who work with us. This includes the oversight of any volunteers by one of our clinical practitioners who will ensure that our volunteers can process and deal with any concerns arising from greater awareness of child sexual abuse.
