Youth Work Volunteer

Youth Outreach Bus Trust
VO54777

The Youth Outreach Bus or ‘Red Bus’ as it has become known is a converted double decker bus which has been completely re-designed inside to become a mobile youth drop in centre for ages s1-s6 (secondary school). It has Playstations, Music System (which plays both internally and externally) and a widescreen TV which can play DVD’s and be connected to the Nintendo Wii.

We are currently expanding our volunteers and are looking for people to assist and engage with the young people attending in a positive and encouraging manner.

The bus currently operates in Dyce and Seaton, but is mobile and we are actively looking to expand to working in other parts of Aberdeen as well.

This is an exciting and unique opportunity to help with the only mobile youth drop in centre like this in Aberdeen.

A great opportunity to help, make a difference for young people and the local community and be part of a friendly, supportive team of volunteers.
