_Youth Mentor Volunteer_

**Are you looking to get into youth work and would like to gain valuable work experience in the field?**

**YES,** is a local youth charity supporting young people. We are looking for individuals to join our team as Youth Activity mentors, volunteers. The mentor will offer support and encourage confidence, self-esteem, and well-being through taking part in activities with the mentee.

As a mentor you will be carefully matched with a young person and work with them on a one-to-one basis. Although individual arrangements will vary, you will meet for a couple of hours each week or fortnight. Some young people just need someone to hang out with, who will really listen and help them build up their confidence and self-esteem. Others will have some specific goals they would like your help to work towards. Whilst each young person will have varying objectives, all mentors will be understanding of the challenges they are facing and give support, guidance, and encouragement.

No previous experience of working with young people is required, as full training will be provided. All we ask is that you are dependable and committed. You will receive support throughout from our project staff and be a valued member of the team. **This is an ideal opportunity if you are interested in looking for a career in youth work.**

Our mentors are role models to the young people we work with, and therefore should be responsible, resilient, good at communicating and want to make a difference to the lives of local Tendring young people.

**Job Types**: Part-time, Volunteer
Part-time hours: 2 per week

Schedule:

- Monday to Friday
- Weekend availability
