We’re looking for someone in the field of youth work who has significant experience delivering workshops for young people.
We’d like you to lead a two-hour session at our next leaders even this Saturday 3rd November 11:30-1:30pm.
What will the session entail?
The session aims are:
-To help Leaders recognise their own knowledge skills and talents as well as those of their peers.
- To help Leaders link these to their role within TheSite.org network.
We want the session to:
- Boost the self-esteem of participants

- Be fun!
Where will it take place?
We have the space for this at YouthNet’s offices near Old Street tube. The address is First floor, 50 Featherstone Street, London, EC1Y 8RT.
