The Youth Engagement team offers a range of opportunities to young people who have accessed akt’s housing service. We offer group trips, workshops, as well as working towards a Youth Conference, a Youth Panel and other exciting long-term projects. This role will support the Black, Brown and People of Colour (BBPoC) co-ordinator. This would be assisting with the BBPoC LGBTQ+ youth group in London and the national online group. However, there will also be opportunities to get involved with additional activities, events and opportunities for young people which volunteers can assist with e.g. Pride events, theatre trips etc. These are more ad-hoc and will depend on availability– they are not an expectation of the role.
suggested activities:
- Helping to organise and plan sessions which cover a broad range of activities such as creative activities, workshops, projects, well-being sessions and hangouts
- Assist the Youth Engagement Team to engage young LGBTQ+ BBPoC in a programme of meaningful activities designed to promote well-being and support young people to meet their personal goals e.g. welcoming young people when they arrive, assisting them to engage in the activities and helping with clearing up
- Support the meaningful engagement of young BBPoC in the co-creation of akt’s services and projects
- Developing and creating resources to provide advice, support and reassurance to LGBTQ+ young BBPoC on issues and topics that matter to them most
- Co-facilitate BBPoC groups and peer support sessions with the opportunity to lead in running some activities
