Technical Set Up volunteer (Disco, Movies & Karaoke)

  • VO99906

Description

UNIQUE Friends Together is a Community Group based in Ayr in the south west of Scotland.
Our purpose is to promote inclusivity and integration for young people aged 16 to 30 with additional support needs.
We do this by organising and running safe and accessible social events and activities such as disco, karaoke, games, cinema, trips etc.
New people are always welcome to come along to any of our events - we love seeing new faces.
The group is run entirely by volunteers and managed by a small committee of five Trustees.
Our trustees and event volunteers include parents/guardians of young people with ASN.

We are looking for a volunteer who can provide the technical know how to set up equipment for our various social activities and events, for example discos, cinema/movie nights and karaoke. We have regular social events every second Friday evening with occasional activities happening from time to time.

These events provide fun, friendship and social inclusion for the young people who come along. We are based in Heathfield Community Centre in Ayr and the events take place there. We need someone with the technical know how and a few hours to spare as a volunteer to help us make sure that we can deliver events as promised.

This is a great opportunity to share your technical wizardry and make sure our activities are well set up and successful!

Kincorth Community Centre Hub Volunteers

The Kincorth Community Centre Hub has great volunteer opportunities to assist with a range of activities at the Hub. Volunteer roles include supporting our busy community cafe, which has rapidly taken off, we currently open 9.30 -2.30, but our aim is to run a breakfast and supper club, as well as have the cafe open for activities in the evening. We have a diverse community that has a lot to offer e.g.: art classes/exercise group/dance class/music lessons and we are always open to new ideas-we are more or less a blank canvass. Excellent support and relevant guidance is provided to all volunteers. Level 2 Hygiene Certificate will be offered to those who want to volunteer/cook in the café. Any other training would be reviewed and provided if proved relevant. A fantastic, enjoyable opportunity to volunteer and help make a real difference for people and the community. All volunteers are greatly appreciated. For further information please contact Andrea Stewart at email gingerstewart@btinternet.com or telephone: 07985 600037.
