Interested in young people? Enjoy music, sport, and arts and craft? Then read on....
We are looking to make additions to our current team of volunteers - volunteering any night of the week between Tuesday to Fridays. We run different youth clubs each night, all of which are open term-time only at The Tythings youth suite on the green in Yateley, Hampshire.
Commitment is just once or twice a month depending on your preference and the role involves engaging with our young people, setting and clearing up, manning the tuck shop and working with a great team of youth workers. The role is on a rota basis so there is no weekly commitment.

Creative Club - Tuesdays 6:30-8:30pm, arts, crafts, cooking and other activities for age 11-18 year olds 

Blue Sky Club - – Wednesdays 7-8pm, a traditional youth club for ages 11-18 who are neurodiverse, such as those on the autistic spectrum. They play indoor games such as pool and table tennis and refreshments are also on offer, however the space is set up slightly differently to accommodate specific needs that this group of young people may have. A quieter, calmer session enabling small group interaction with likeminded others

Thursday Club - Thursdays 6:30-8pm, a traditional youth club for those in school years 6, 7 & 8 (age 11-14). They play indoor games such as pool and table tennis, and we take them out on the floodlit courts for activities such as football and basketball 

Friday Night Club – 7-9pm, a traditional drop-in youth club for those aged 11-18. Lively and fun with games, snacks and chill out space

What skills do I need?

Ability to interact with the young people and work well as a team. Sense of humour and willingness to have fun is key!
Volunteers must be 18+ but we're happy to accommodate uni students home for the holidays.
