Volunteer Information

Great opportunities to volunteer at the YMCA

We provide After School Care and Holiday Programmes for kids aged 5-13 years. Our programme helps children develop physically, socially, creatively, emotionally, academically and culturally while simply playing and having fun in a safe environment.

We need quality volunteers to provide an enriching experience for children in our region, and what we find is that for volunteers it proves to be an enriching experience for them also.

People who volunteer on our After School Care and Holiday Programmes have loads of fun and make new friends. They engage in a positive, fun and motivating time and come away with valuable work experience.

Some of the benefits to being a volunteer.

  • Valuable work experience – looks great on your CV
  • The opportunity to positively impact young lives
  • Fun activities and trips
  • Free Training
  • Build confidence, leadership and communication skills
  • Be a part of a great team
  • Great opportunities to meet and work alongside fantastic people
  • Excellent boredom buster

There are loads of opportunities for you to get involved so get in touch with us if you’re interested.
