Plans for Pilot Project!

Posted on January 24, 2012 by Rafes Place

So planning has now begun for our 6 week pilot project that we will be holding in two local youth centres.

The first step is to find out exactly what sort of activities young people would like to see in their local centres.

If you are a young person (aged 11 – 18) and you live in Chesham, Amersham or Little Chalfont we want to hear from you! You may see us around over the next few weeks, but you can kick start our survey by clicking on the link below and filling in our short questionnaire. It will only take TWO MINUTES and could make a huge difference to what happens in your local centre this year.

FILL OUT THE QUESTIONNAIRE NOW!

First round of interviews done!

Posted on November 30, 2011 by georgia

We’ve just finished our first round of interviews for a whole load of festival and events roles, and we have to say that it was great to meet so many enthusiastic and lovely people! We’re going through our notes from the interviews so anybody who came along will be hearing from us very soon.

With regards to the youth centre roles – we will be looking for students to come on our books to potentially run workshops in music, art, dance, drama, sport and any other creative subjects that would be interesting for young people.

We still have some festival roles available and we will constantly be looking for events teams and youth centre volunteers, so if you’re interested, head over to the opportunities page to download an application form.

Thanks!

Opportunities Now Up!

Posted on October 4, 2011 by Rafes Place

The team had a brilliant day at the Bucks New Uni Freshers Fair a couple of weeks ago. We spoke to loads of interesting students, clubs and societies, and collected a staggering 116 names of potential volunteers!

We’re pleased to announce that a full list of all available volunteering roles is now up, so go and check out the Opportunities page to see if there is anything that takes your fancy.

We have a set an applications deadline of 31st October for all festival coordinator roles to give everybody a fair chance. Once these places have been filled, we will continue to recruit for assistants, officers and team members to support the coordinators.

We are also holding a first round of applications for all youth centre roles, however there will be many places to fill in the future so be sure to keep coming back to see what we have to offer.

Any questions, get in touch!
