YBC YOUNG GROVES (Youth Club)- Are in desperate need of Youth Workers! This Youth Club is open Monday & Tuesday evenings for children from age 8 - 11. You will be required to plan and organise activities for the children/young people and work with them on projects to ensure they are gaining the skills they need for their future. These young people are from deprived backgrounds, and so this will be challenging at times - but so rewarding! The Youth Club needs a new lease of life, and I think York St John students can give it that. If this sounds good to you email the above address.

Children’s Society – PACT Student Befriending Scheme
The Student Scheme is a befriending scheme for disabled children/ young people up to the age of 18. Once approved, volunteers are ‘linked’ with a children or young person to support them to fully participate in age appropriate leisure activities to help them to increase their independence skills, social skills, confidence and self-esteem. Volunteers usually offer between 2 and 4 hours per week or fortnight, during term time and sometimes during the holidays for a minimum of one year. Volunteers usually work on a one-to-one basis with the young people, however we encourage socialising of the young people so some friendship groups are encouraged for the volunteers.
