Volunteer Your Time

Volunteer at our youth projects

We have a range of projects that you can get involved with, from our afternoon youth cafes to our evening projects. Volunteering would involve helping set up and set down projects, getting involved with the sessions as well as being another role model for local young people. If you have ever thought about volunteering with young people then do get in touch, we would love to meet you and talk more about our current opportunities.

Volunteer your skills

It takes a lot of work behind the scenes to provide the range of support we offer. We are always on the look out for skilled individuals who would like to volunteer their time for us. In the past we have benefited from accredited accountants, IT knowledge , photographers as well as local trades people. If you would like to volunteer with us using your experience and skills then please do get in touch to find out more.
