Independent Visitor Service - Nottingham


What is an independent visitor?
An Independent Visitor is an adult volunteer who gives up some of their free time to meet you once a month to do an activity together. You'll be matched with a volunteer who has similar interests to you.
If you're a child or young person in foster care or a children's home and you're aged between 6 and 17.5 years old, we can match you with an Independent Visitor.

What activities can we do?
There are lots of things you could do with your Independent Visitor, like:
- Bowling
- Ice skating
- Trampoline parks
- Cinema trips
- Eating out
- Shopping
The Independent Visitor will collect you from your address and take you back after you've done the activity.
How do I get an independent visitor?
Are you aged 6 – 17.5? Do you live with a foster family, in a residential home, or by yourself?
With your permission, your social worker can refer you to us.
Call 07435925216 / 01332294534 or email: [email protected] for a referral form.
