Do you like to have
fun?
Do you have a little
spare time?
Would you like to
help other people to have fun and learn new skills? Would
you like to learn new skills and support
other people? Yes.... then
volunteering with us could perfect for all of us.
How to join
There are a few simple steps that
you will need to take before we can get you started....
1)
Give us a call
2)
We will arrange to meet with you. We usually ask
you to come along to one of our Youth Groups. That way you can
meet our other volunteers, get to know
some of our members and also see what fun we have.
At the meeting we will spend some time chatting about how our group
works, what you
like to do and your availability. We will also complete your Criminal Records Bureau Check
(CRB) .
3)
We will give you a copy of our Activity Sheet. This is our
programme of activities for the next 2 months.
Once you have joined us......
4)
We will send you a new Activity Sheet every 2 months. When you get
it we ask you to have a look at it and decide which activities you
are able to help with. We will never put any pressure on you to
come along to activities or to give up your time but will ask that
you always
let us know what you are able to do. This way we can make sure
that we have enough volunteers at an activity to keep everyone
safe and also that we have enough tickets or seats in our bus etc.
Will it cost you anything?
Just some of your time, enthusiasm
and commitment.
We appreciate the work of our
volunteers and don't expect them to be out of pocket. What we do
ask you to give is your time and commitment.
Each activity is led by member of
staff or a senior volunteer. They are fully trained in all aspects
of our work and are there to support you, the other volunteers and
our members. They will also pay the cost of any activity, tickets,
drinks or foods.

What our
volunteers
say about their time with us!
" Being a volunteer with the group has given me so much
confidence. I never thought I would enjoy anything as much as I do
my time out with the guys" .... John "My
social life has never been so good. Days out, evenings out,
holidays. What more could I ask for and all the time I'm helping
others"....Christine " Love it. I have
learnt so much. I feel like a real part of something"... Kev. |
