About this role

The Cube is a fantastic, purpose built space next to Symingtons Rec in Market Harborough. It’s a Youth Centre with a difference – boasting a pizza oven made by some of our Young People out the back in a beautiful garden, inside there’s a modern kitchen where we cook and hang around the breakfast bar chatting. We have televisions and games consoles, snooker and table football, creative and chilled out activities and we have a lot of fun together. We run different groups for different ages but all exist to create a place where Young People can thrive in their communities. We invest time in Young People not only because they’re great company and we enjoy spending time with them but because we’re passionate about empowering them to live lives filled with confidence and opportunities. Come and be a part of what we do, you’ll love it too!

 

As well as running youth groups we also run a free counselling service, work with local Primary Schools and Churches to support Year 6 in transitioning to Secondary School, we help with assemblies and many more things. We have run mentoring projects in the past, employment projects, PSHE sessions, Summer Holiday activities and many more things. With the effects of Covid 19 there have been and will continue to be some changes taking place within the organisation, we’re reviewing what we do as an organisation to continue meeting the needs of young people in Market Harborough and there are some exciting plans on the horizon so now is a great time to get involved and help make a real difference!

Our volunteers are really special people who get alongside our young people, taking time to get to know them individually, challenging them at ping pong and helping them learn how to make origami all with the intention of helping them identify their own talents and skills, grow in confidence and feel supported through the challenges of being a young person.

If you’ve got experience working with young people, maybe you’ve had your own children or want to get experience before going into a career with young people then this could be a great opportunity for you.

All necessary training given.
