The MS Society is committed to promoting diversity. We can only offer roles to over 18s.
Role involves being in the Youth Project between 6.30 and 10pm to assist the workers with between 20 and 60 youngsters dropping in on any evening. We are open Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday
Any skills that the volunteers have can be brought to play. (we have hair and beauty evenings, have taught some knitting and crafts or it may be music) but that element is not necessary. There is nothing compulsory in the Attic and the buzz comes from interaction, chat and activities chosen by the youngsters themselves. Manning the Cafe Bar, maybe playing some pool,darts or air hockey is all part of it. PVG check required. For further information contact Caroline Fife -carolinefife@southesk.co.uk
