Group Work Support Volunteer

• Who Cares Scotland East Lothain

• VO100724

We are looking for volunteers who can provide a strong foundation to help strengthen their
communities by helping Care Experienced children and young people engage in activities to build
their skills and confidence and to be included, understood, respected, and valued in their
communities.
The Group Work Support Volunteer role will work alongside our innovative and energetic East
Lothian project team, supporting the delivery of the fortnightly East Lothian Champions Board
groups. The group allows Care Experienced children and young people to build connections
with others and provides a platform for them to raise their views and experiences to promote change.
This role will involve interacting with young people aged 12-17 through supporting and leading
on a variety of activities e.g. arts/crafts/sports/general youth work at our fortnightly sessions as well as at our National events that happen throughout the year. This role will help build connection and belonging for Care Experienced young people and provide a platform to allow them to influence positive change. Providing transport to young people to and from the fortnightly sessions is a key need for the group.
