Volunteering with Blue Apple’s Young Online Company.
Young Online Company Performing Arts Saturday 11am-12pm via Zoom
Blue Apple’s Young Company Performing Arts teaches skills to young people with learning disabilities aged 14-21. The online sessions offer singing, dance and drama and they are facilitated by a trained professional.
Blue Apple’s Young Company is for young adults anywhere aged 14-21 years with a learning disability who have a passion and interest in the arts. Sessions explore all aspects of performing arts including drama, movement, and song, in a fun and nurturing environment, with development opportunities to perform and progress into Blue Apple’s adult companies and sessions.
Classes follow the school academic term and take place weekly over twelve weeks.
The role
Although all our sessions and performances are facilitated by professional actors, dancers, singers and other theatre professionals, each one is also supported by dedicated volunteers who also bring specialist skills.
The role of the volunteer is to help support the performers to rehearse, to join in with full group activities and exercises, help contribute to discussions and provide supportive feedback.
Drama experience would be very useful but is not essential. The volunteer will need a recent DBS check or be prepared to have one undertaken for the role.
When you volunteer, you show you care about others, and you help make the world better. Your hard work creates change. Blue Apple volunteers all:
- Choose to help
- Care about others
- Are fair to everyone
- Work together
- Help people in need
- Respect everyone
