This is an exciting opportunity to be part of the development of a Youth Hub at Northfield Hall in Huddersfield. This is an initiative lead by young people, supported by Positive Stepz CIC and Local Services 2 You. Working in partnership we are developing a comprehensive programme of activities and support for young people.

The young people have identified the mission of the Hub as:

“to create a vibrant and inclusive community hub where young people can come together to learn, grow and thrive.” 

They have also said the centre will do the following:

 “Through engaging activities, supportive staff, and a commitment to safety and wellbeing, we aim to empower youth to reach their full potential and become active contributors to their communities.” 

The hub will act as a place of safety, somewhere that young people can share and learn together, access support, improve wellbeing and develop skills. 

The opportunity is initially on a self employed basis for a minimum of four hours per week to deliver at least one evening session for young people during the week. We can be flexible though and are happy to discuss the opportunity to deliver more hours and sessions. We will also consider secondment or partnership arrangements where appropriate.
