Volunteer Support Worker — Youth Group (12–18) and Afterschool Club (5–11)

Volunteers required to support disabled children to take part in various group activities including life skills.

Our activity groups are for disabled young people living in Cheshire West. Children who attend come for fun and get involved in a range of activities. As a result we see them grow in confidence, increase their self-esteem, reach their full potential, and develop relationships with their peers.

What you’d be doing

Volunteers will support children within the groups or on a 1:1 basis to take part in activities decided on by those who attend.

What we’re looking for

Volunteers should be reliable, honest, patient, enthusiastic, non-judgemental, willing to learn new skills, and committed to the inclusion of disabled young people.

Roles available in Chester, Macclesfield and Crewe (Youth Group), between Monday and Thursday.

No formal qualifications are required.

Volunteers can expect a full induction, role-specific training and ongoing support.
