This role requires a Youth Support Worker who is compassionate, enthusiastic, and committed to making a difference to the lives of children and young people. You will need to be flexible, creative, caring, and have experience working with children and young people in various settings to offer high-quality, youth-led activities. There will be opportunities to work across our services, but your main focus will be our prevention services.
Our prevention services include providing diversionary activities, informal learning opportunities, and information and guidance delivered through open access play sessions, community-based and detached youth work, and centre-based provision. The support we offer ensures that young people are better informed about life choices and the opportunities available to them, as well as having the opportunity to improve their social and emotional capabilities.
While you will be required to work across other areas, your main area of delivery will be in Totton. We are looking for an experienced Youth Support Worker to take on the lead role in planning, delivering, and evaluating high-quality youth work at the Garage Youth Centre, as well as detached youth work and open-access play sessions in the Totton area.
