DIY team at Measham and District Youth Club

January 9, 2025

About this Opportunity

Overview:

We are looking for a volunteer who could help with occasional locking / unlocking the Youth Centre to allow hirers access. The role would also involve the ability to help with the routine maintenance of the building.

Organisation:

Measham and District Youth Club

Address:

Bosworth Road, Measham, Swadlincote , UK

DE12 7LG

Location:

Onsite

About the organisation:

We run a youth club on Friday evenings in the village of Measham. We bought the old Methodist Chapel and converted it for use as a youth club and a community hiring facility. It is managed by a group of Trustees who maintain and manage the building and pay the youth leaders.

Full Details:

Measham and District Youth Club is run by a board of seven Trustees. We maintain the Youth centre in as good a condition as we are able to make it an attractive place for Children and Youth to attend and take a pride in. However the existing trustees are not as young as they were and some of them who did a lot of the routine DIY tasks in the past are not able to do these now.

We are looking for a volunteer who could help with painting and decorating, minor repairs to woodwork, plastering and plumbing.

If they lived within a short distance of the Youth Club, then occasional locking / unlocking to allow hirers access would also be very helpful.

The work could be done at a time to suit the volunteer as long as it did not clash with the building being used for activities. If the volunteer would like to attend Trustee meetings ( once every two months) to feel more involved with the overall running of the YouthClub, then they would be welcome. These are held on a Wednesday evening.
