Volunteering
If you would you like to help us with our work with young people. Would you like to work in a supportive but challenging environment, and have a day a week to spare time, then maybe you would like to Volunteer at The What? Centre.

Initially you would be mainly involved in administration work and meeting and greeting, but with time shadowing other workers and training, you would be able to get involved with more complex advice work.

If you are interested and would like to know more please Contact Us. Or you may wish to go through Dudley Council for Voluntary Services.



Counselling Volunteers / Placements
The What? Centre is always looking for Counselling Volunteers. If you are interested in Volunteering for us and would like to discuss it further please Contact Us. We would love to hear from you. Or send us your CV, addressed for the attention of the Counselling Co-ordinator.

If you are currently training to be a counsellor on a Counselling Diploma Course and are approaching your second year you may be interested in a Counselling Placement at The What? Centre. We offer a challenging, interesting and supportive experience.

If you would like to find out more about a Placement with us please have a look at our Placement FAQs. If you would like to apply for a Placement please and would like to discuss it further please Contact Us. Or send us your CV, addressed for the attention of the Counselling Co-ordinator.

Donations
The What? Centre relies greatly upon external funding and has a shortfall of £35,000 every year.

Services are FREE to clients, however if anyone wishes to make a personal donation they can do so by sending a cheque or postal order, made payable to The What Centre, to 23 Coventry Street, Stourbridge, West Midlands
DY8 1EP.

Or click on the Donate Button located at the top of every page.

For each £35 you donate we will be able to provide a counselling session to a young person who desperately needs our help because they have experienced abuse, an eating disorder, bullying, a problem with family relationships or a bereavement. For each £20 you donate we will be able to offer an advice session to a young person around homelessness, employment issues, debt or sexual health.

If you are a company or trust and wish for more information, please Contact Us and we will send you a
copy of our annual report.


Sponsorship
Our leaflets and posters have been sponsored by MEB NPower and Marks and Spencers in the past. If your company would like to sponsor the leaflets that are taken into schools, colleges, youth organisations and health clinics to publicise the work of the What? Centre, then please Contact Us.
