Youth Volunteering Facilitator
TimeGivers
We need adults to facilitate volunteering events for children in their communities in West London.
Adult Volunteers can support a wide variety of fun and meaningful 'Giving Back' activities/events during school hours, including, for example: Arts and Crafts - Helping primary school students create decorations for local care homes Cooking and Baking - Supporting secondary school students to make nutritious meals for a community kitchen Environmental - Helping students regenerate their school's green spaces or doing a litter pick in the community Location: All volunteer opportunities currently take place in West London (but we have future plans to expand across all of London!).

All we ask is that our Adult Volunteers enjoy working with children and are reliable, helpful, kind and enthusiastic! It’s great if Adult Volunteers have a skill / enjoy doing activities like arts and crafts, cooking and baking, gardening, sewing, creative writing, woodwork/DIY that is useful to TimeGivers, but it is not a requirement! Most of our volunteering activities last between 1 hour and 3 hours, and Adult Volunteers will be on their feet for a lot of the time, so a reasonable level of fitness is needed.
Benefits to being an Adult Volunteer with TimeGivers: - A chance to inspire children and young people to give back for life - Connect children and young people to their local community and good causes - Help forge stronger community networks - Boost your confidence and self-esteem - Learn new creative skills - The chance to meet likeminded people and make new friends - Increase your volunteering experience and help children and young people begin theirs
We need Adult Volunteers during School Term Time (Winter, Spring and Summer), Monday-Friday (within school hours, for 1-3 hours). Adult Volunteers are welcome to choose from supporting TimeGivers for a one-off event, or being a more regular volunteer (e.g. supporting a weekly club for 4-6 weeks consecutively). We also run volunteering activities for children during School Holidays where we sometimes need Adult Volunteers to support us.
