Length of role: 2 – 14 Weeks between June and September

We are looking for dedicated individuals, with an interest in working with young people to strengthen their communities, working both residentially and in the local community in London, Surrey, Berkshire the West Midlands or the North West.

A single programme lasts three weeks and includes outdoor activities, skill development and community service. We have paid positions available for people at every level of experience, from those wishing to gain further experience working with young people, through to experienced Project Managers.
