Session Volunteer
With the new government guidance, we have limited the number of young people in each session. We have created an offer which allows groups of young people to rotate around the Tribe and do multiple activities per night. Activities include the I am Me project (health and fitness), creative and life skill activities.
The role would include and not limited to:
- Supporting our leader in the activities
- Ensuring our members follow our social distancing guidance and other rules in place
- Being that someone to talk to for our members
- Full training will be provided
Admin Volunteer
Now we have reopened our doors and with our booking system in place, we would like to get feedback from our members to see if there are any issues or barriers preventing them coming back to the Tribe Youth Group.
The role would include and not limited to:
- Contacting members to see how they are doing
- Doing short google surveys with young people to see if they’re any issues or ways we can improve our activities.
- Presenting the findings to the team
- Creating promotional materials and weekly notice sheets
- Full training will be provided.

Why Volunteer?
Whilst you’ll want to make a real difference when you volunteer, it’s not just about what you can do for others. Here are some of the things that volunteering can do for you:
- Give your CV a boost: Time Bank recently did a survey of some of the UK’s leading businesses and 73%* said they’d employ someone who’s volunteered over someone who hasn’t.
- Meet new people: You’ll probably meet people from different cultures and backgrounds that you might not normally. Volunteering with people who are as passionate about improving the opportunities for you people, as you are, is a great way to meet like-minded people.
- Get back into work: It’s a great way to get a reference and fill gaps in your work experience. You can also try out different types of work to get a taster – which can really help you if you’re looking for a job or want to change direction.
- Improve your confidence: You’ll learn and do things that you might not normally get the chance to – this can be a real confidence boost.
