Volunteering with young people
We are an education service for all young people aged 11-25 but unlike schools we have an informal, voluntary relationship with young people.
We provide opportunities for young people to get involved in different activities ranging from simply having fun & meeting new friends to trying new activities, receiving support for challenges & getting involved in decision making.
Our vision is for young people to have fun, feel valued & listened to, and to learn, achieve & aspire to do well now & in their futures.
We have a variety of volunteering opportunities available for adults who would like to join our dynamic team and make a difference to young people’s lives.
Opportunities exist for both English and Welsh speakers.
