Youth Helpers assist in the delivery of our exciting youth programmes once a week on Wednesday evenings during school term time. Every term you will also get together with other youth helpers and leaders to plan activities for the following term. In addition, you will have the opportunity to get involved with taking our Cadets and/or Badgers on day trips at weekends. Full training will be provided and if you would like to progress further then once you have some experience there will also be an opportunity to take on more responsibility to help with the running of the youth unit.
