Who We're Looking For: 

  • Enthusiastic individuals who are passionate about working with young people and making a difference in the community. 
  • Outgoing, friendly, and approachable personalities. 
  • Reliable volunteers who can commit to Monday evenings. 
  • Volunteers who can travel to Meath Street, Middlesbrough. 
  • Applicants must be 16 years or older. 

 

Why Volunteer with Us?

  • Receive training and full support from our dedicated team. 
  • We’ll help you complete a DBS check if you don’t already have one.
