All we ask is that our Youth Volunteering Facilitators enjoy working with children and are reliable, helpful, kind and enthusiastic! It’s great if you have a skill in or enjoy doing activities like arts and crafts, cooking and baking, gardening, sewing, creative writing, woodwork/DIY. These are all useful to TimeGivers, but not a requirement! Most of our volunteering activities last between 1 hour and 3 hours, and Youth Volunteering Facilitators will be on their feet for a lot of the time, so a reasonable level of fitness is needed.

We need Youth Volunteering Facilitators during school term time, Monday-Friday, within school hours, for 1-3 hours. Youth Volunteering Facilitators are welcome to choose from supporting TimeGivers for a one-off event, or being a more regular volunteer, eg supporting a weekly club for 4-6 weeks consecutively.
