Youth Work Volunteer

The Primrose Community Trust are looking for youth work volunteers (16+) to help at various sessions for young people in Crossgates in Fife. The sessions would involve setting up, taking part in the sessions, and encouraging young people to be active participants, tidying up, taking part in the evaluation at the end of sessions. The sessions will be working with the youth work team and will be on a rota basis, so will not have to volunteer every week if this is not manageable.
Junior Youth club drop-in: Monday 5.45-8pm (8-12yrs)

Lego Club sessions: Tuesday 3-5pm (7-12yrs)

Senior Youth Club drop-in: Fridays 6.30-9pm (12-15yrs)


Experience required

Primrose Community Trust hope to have a team of volunteers that is helpful, friendly, supportive and encouraging of young people. They want them to become part of the youth work team of volunteers and establish good relationships with young people, adding to the already existing safe space they have access to. They would like their volunteers to have some experience with children and young people, but this is not essential, so long as they are able to talk to people and be a positive addition to the team and young people attending.
