Aberdeen Young Carers are looking for volunteers to spend some quality time with a child or young person between the ages of 5-18 on a regular basis, getting to know them, and building up a positive relationship by being reliable and non-judgemental when listening to them.
A group volunteer with Aberdeen Young Carers will assist staff members in delivering any planned activities e.g. arts and crafts, baking, sport activities etc. They will actively participate with the activity, encourage young people to join in and have fun and build up positive relationships with the Young Carers by being friendly and non-judgemental.
