Here at SNAPPY we are always looking for volunteers to assist us in providing great play and activity experiences for children and young people with disabilities. We run a Saturday scheme, for school aged children and young people with disabilities, a Senior scheme for adults with disabilities on a Thursday evening, and playschemes in both the Easter and Summer holidays.
Volunteer Playworkers at Snappy have a number of responsibilities; they are expected to build strong relationships with young people who face a number of challenges in terms of physical disability and learning difficulties. They are also tasked with engaging and supporting those children and young people through a wide variety of tasks and activities.
Volunteers will undertake an induction and have access to a wide variety of external training for free. A DBS check is essential but we can complete it here if you have not had one completed previously.
If you want to gain great experience of working with children with disabilities in a fast paced, fun environment, please get in touch!
