Volunteer Opportunity for 16-26 year olds

Young Leaders are a group of aspiring young people who act as ambassadors for our work and help Youth Mix!

We are a start up youth charity in England called Youth Mix that aims to work in areas of need that bring young people together in unity, while also providing a number of positive and life enhancing events and programmes. We aim to give young people access to new opportunities and give them new and enhancing life experiences that could change their lives. Our purpose is to UNITE, EDUCATE and INSPIRE a generation.

Our events and programmes will cover topics related to the needs of young people such as life skills, personal development, employability skills, healthy living and wellbeing and other topics relevant to young people in England. We want to give young people the tools and experiences to help shape them, their future and help inspire a generation that equips them to deal with adult life.

Made up of volunteers aged 16-26 years old, Young Leaders will actively participate in the work of Youth Mix. The key activities will include:

• Engagement with the CEO and operational leads in relation to the strategic direction of Youth Mix including the development of new projects/services;
• Inspiring other young people while developing teamwork and communication skills;
• Testing and improving the programmes that we are piloting;

Young Leaders will be mentored and will receive guidance and training from Youth Mix staff while participating in projects that have a real positive impact on their personal development and life skills.

If you are aged 16-26 and living in England, why not apply? This is your opportunity to actively shape a new charity for fellow future generations of young people, while gaining the skills that makes you more employable.

The role is a vital for Youth Mix as we want to be a charity for young people run by young people and requires approx. 3-8 hours per month. Timing is flexible but may include meetings/events in the evening, weekend and/or occasional daytime activities.
