"We have opportunities available for young people and adults to join our existing ban of volunteers”
GET INVOLVED
Last year Switch provided over 20 young people with work experience meaning that over 1600 hours were accrued and used to support their development. We also had over 30 young people volunteer with us for a further 1000 hours. We have a number of ways you can get involved.
There are now currently 7 young people and 7 adult volunteers with the aim of recruiting more.
You could:
• Volunteer
• Do your work experience here
Volunteer
Here are a few of the many reasons you could volunteer:
• Learn new skills
• Good for your C.V
• Work alongside experienced people in their field
• Make new friends
• Knowing you’re making a unique contribution to our work
Although the aim of a volunteer is to support the charity we also want to support you. Therefore it is important that we know what you are interested in so we can tailor the volunteering experience to suit you.
Work experience
We have been able to provide work experience for young people who are interested in:
• Catering
• IT
• Health and Social Care
• Working with Young People.
Spaces are limited so don’t miss out, come join us and help us help others.
If any of the above interest you then feel free to contact us via phone or email.
