Young people are usually aged between 5 and 18 years. We ask that you can give a young person a few hours per month for a minimum of two years, as you will play an important part in their social, emotional, and educational development.

Additional Information: The role requires two references and an enhanced DBS check, which is free. All volunteer expenses are paid in full once returned to the project. Tasks and Responsibilities
