You will be expected to build effective and meaningful relationships with young people through regular contact, mutual trust, respect and understanding whilst maintaining professional boundaries, whilst responding to the needs of individuals and groups of young people by developing appropriate strategies for action which are both educational and fun.


All of our Youth Team help to bridge the gaps in understanding between the local community and young people; and to highlight issues affecting young people acting as advocates for and with them within the wider community.
