Entries tagged with “worth unlimited” from Working For Walthamstow
This Summer I'm seeking volunteers to join a project developed in partnership with the local police, the local McDonalds franchisee Zulfikar and Worth Unlimited, a local youth charity, to help ensure young people in Walthamstow are given the support they need to have a summer full of activities. To support their safe participation in summer activities I'm seeking volunteers to help walk young people to and from a range of activities in the Walthamstow area during the evenings of the summer holidays. Working in partnership with trained youth workers, other volunteers and young organisers for this scheme, those who participate in this scheme will play a key role in helping our local young people access services. They will also have the opportunity to build relations with young people they may not ordinarily get to meet in your local community and help inspire them to achieve their potential through a summer of positive community outreach activities. Throughout this project training and support will be given to all volunteers.
In the first instance this "safe passage" scheme will run on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. Volunteers who take part in this project will be asked to commit to participating for a minimum of four evenings during the course of the six week summer holiday period. If you are interested in learning more about this project or volunteering through this scheme please contact Ebony Vincent on 020 8520 6586 or email at ebony@workingforwalthamstow.org.uk . I hope you'll be able to join me in helping our local young people stay safe this summer.
