You can help make that happen by becoming a volunteer School Speaker. By giving talks and workshops at primary and secondary schools to encourage global learning you can inspire the next generation to take action.

  • give talks and facilitate workshops at schools in your area which have requested a visit from SOS Children 
  • encourage and support school fundraising initiatives
  • pro-actively arrange your own speaking opportunities at schools where you have contacts.

SOS Children will provide you with resources and ongoing support.

 Ideally you will have:

  • experience of working with young people
  • enthusiasm for the work of SOS Children
  • contacts at schools in your local area
  • experience of public speaking to diverse audiences.
