We're looking for Virtual Volunteers (based in the UK and aged 16 and over) to join us at our online after-school sessions, where you will be supporting young people aged 9 to 13 with their reading and writing and championing their work as they become published poets, authors and podcast creators!

We're looking for people that are positive about social change and that love literacy. No experience working with young people is necessary as full training is given.

There's never been a better time to volunteer with school closures likely to have reversed efforts to close the educational gap.

About the program

Our summer camp program is a comprehensive initiative that is designed to provide a safe and engaging environment for children between the ages of 4 to 16 during school breaks.Kasoa is a market community and most of the women and men work as hawkers, shop attenders, petty traders etc which makes them leave home very early in the morning leaving their children to roam about the neighborhood and street.  This is a non residential camp for the children but residential for volunteers.

 The program focuses on preventing child delinquency by offering various fun and educational activities that keep children occupied and engaged.   Our camp offers a variety of activities such as outdoor games, sports, arts and crafts, music, drama, reading, storytelling, French, and other recreational activities that help children develop social skills, improve their self-confidence, and foster positive relationships with others. 

During summer breaks, schools and various institutions organize vacations or summer schools. However, the high cost of attending these programs often makes it impossible for children from poor homes to participate. Consequently, these children end up roaming the streets and engaging in various social vices. The program takes place within the community where children from the slums, streets and poor backgrounds are brought together and taken through indoor and outdoor games and activities.

Our Summer camp is a call to action to provide an opportunity for children to be productive during the school break. The program starts from July through to end of August 2024 every year and volunteers can participate any date within the summer period. Volunteers are allowed to develop and introduce their own indoor and outdoor games. Volunteers who have special activities they want to introduce may want to bring the tools and items they may use since we may not have them. Volunteers are encouraged to come along with some crafts, paper, colors, pencils, paints, etc.

We are looking for volunteers dedicated to ensuring the safety and well-being of all children in their care. Our summer camp is the perfect place for children to learn, grow, and have fun during their school breaks whilst volunteers also learn the local culture, make new friends, touch lives, and make meaningful contributions to the lives.

What You Can Bring

 Volunteers can bring materials like paints, pencils and pencil colors, crayons, drawing papers, toys, etc. Some of these materials can also be found in the local market for ready purchase. Most importantly you bring a big heart and smile.

What we expect from you

You must be passionate about children and ability to work with children from all kinds of backgrounds and with specific needs and attention.

What you can expect from us

Our staff is available to you 24/7 to give any necessary support. We will assign one staff to take care of your needs.

Who You will Work with

Volunteers work closely with our staff and other volunteers. Volunteers are paired with other volunteers if any to work on similar activities.

How Do I Get to the placement?

For the first day, volunteers will be taken to the center. Our staff will show volunteers how to get to the center, the direction to take, the particular vehicle if any, and the amount to pay for the transportation. This is repeated the next day if the volunteer thinks he still can't make it until the volunteer can make his/her way. The same is done for the return to the homestay from the placement center.

Bright Futures UK works with young people who have been forced to take time out from education due to chronic illness.

The young people we work with have missed so many experiences in school which we take for granted. The time you can offer to help fill in those missed periods is invaluable to their development. Your sessions will be fully supported by Bright Futures UK staff – from questions or queries, resources or materials or just to bounce an idea off the team, we’re here to help.

Volunteering with Bright Futures UK is something that can easily fit into your working day or a busy schedule with commitment starting from as little as 1 hour per week. We are so grateful for any support you might be able to provide, as are our young people.

Our volunteers champion the rights of young people in care and on the edges of care, support them to access advocacy and make their voices heard. Training is provided. Whether you are currently studying, recently graduated, working part-time, retired or between jobs, volunteering with Coram Voice is a great opportunity to make a difference at the same time as gaining experience of working for a national children’s rights charity.

Our Helpline Supervisors will support you to develop valuable advocacy skills and knowledge of children’s rights and we offer specialist training in safeguarding, equality and diversity and advocacy. This training and other resources will help you to prepare for the role. You will be joining a team that provides quality support to young people in a friendly and supportive environment.

Avon Scouts seeks voluntary Trustee

Almondsbury, South Glos Evening Meetings or remote

6 x Meetings Per year

Avon Scouts is an organisation that helps young people to do more, learn more, and be more. They provide adventurous activities and personal development opportunities for people aged 6-25 - helping develop life skills such as teamwork, communication and leadership. Avon Scouts help individuals achieve their full potential by improving their physical, intellectual, and social well-being. They abide by a ‘Learn by doing’ policy, on the basis that young people develop most when they are given responsibility, work in teams, and learn for themselves.

Avon Scout County is one of the largest Scout Counties in the UK, with over 12,000 members and over 4,000 volunteers. They are responsible for a large area, radiating from Bristol to North & North East Somerset and South Gloucestershire. They have ambitious plans for growth in the coming years, as they aim to enhance the services they provide and increase their reach to more communities. To assist in these developments, they’re seeking a Trustee to join their Board.

Trustees ensure that Avon Scouts operates at peak efficiency and delivers its full potential. The role is focused on strategy performance and assurance. Effective Trustee governance enables volunteers to deliver programmes that give young people skills for life. The Board of Trustees helps mould the vision of Avon Scouts while setting goals and objectives. They will approve operational strategies and evaluate their implementation and performance. Furthermore, Trustees oversee the financial plans and budgets and ensure key risks are identified, monitored and controlled.

The organisation is looking to broaden the diversity of thinking on the Board. They’re hoping to hear from candidates who will bring energy, enthusiasm and commitment to the role. The successful candidate will be a creative thinker, able to work as part of a team and solve problems effectively. They will have strong communication skills and be able to participate in discussions with independent judgment. Ideally, the Trustee will bring an understanding of the different communities that Avon Scouts works in (Bristol, Bath, North & North East Somerset and South Gloucestershire). A candidate who can provide insight into the socio-economic inequalities in one or more of these areas is highly desirable. Previous governance experience is not required, as training will be provided. It is far more important that the individual shows enthusiasm for the vision of Avon Scouts, alongside a personal commitment to equity, diversity and inclusion.

If you’re passionate about developing the skills young people need to succeed and improving local communities - we’d love to hear from you.
