Presteigne Youth Project needs Youth Work Leader.
Presteigne Youth Project, an entirely independent volunteer run Youth Club, has been operating since 2011. It opens once a week on Monday evening from 6pm to 8pm during term time. The members are mostly in their last year at Primary School, and first year in Secondary School.
A core concept of PYP has always been that there should be a professionally trained youth worker present at sessions to support our volunteer youth workers. Initially these professional youth workers were provided by Powys County Council, but in 2016 this support was withdrawn. Since then PYP has employed an ex PCC youth worker. Unfortunately due to pressure of other work this person has had to leave.
The applicant would have to have certified training as a youth worker, be experienced in working with young people, and be capable of managing of a small team of volunteers (3-4 individuals). The applicant could be a volunteer if they wished, or could be paid a wage for 4 hours work a week. 2 hrs at the actual youth club session on a Monday from 6 until 8pm, during term time, the remainder off site preparing and planning club activities.
Applicants interested should contact James Tennant-Eyles by email at jtennanteyles@gmail.com to arrange to meet for a discussion.
