Volunteers - Youth Justice Referral Order Panels

Youth Justice Volunteer Vacancies - Referral Order Panels

We have an exciting opportunity for volunteers to join our scheme within Children’s Services. The scheme is managed by the Targeted Family Support Team and offers the chance to contribute across a range of Children’s Services, including the Youth Justice Service. We are looking to grow our team of volunteers as we enhance the support offered to young people and families living on our Island.

Volunteers bring real added value to the fantastic work already carried out by our staff. By volunteering with us, you will have opportunities to develop your skills, knowledge and experience, while meeting new people and making a meaningful difference.

You may be retired, in further education, employed or seeking employment. As the largest employer on the Island, we are committed to supporting you throughout your volunteering journey.
