We believe that real change happens when people come together to share their time, skills, and experience. If you have industry expertise, a passion for mentoring, or simply want to give back, we’d love to hear from you!
Our Volunteering Opportunities
There are many ways to get involved at The Skills Spot.
Whether you’d like to support young people one-to-one, help create a welcoming environment during club sessions, run a workshop, or lend a hand at events, we’re always open to people who want to invest their time in our community.
You don’t need to have a background in youth work. What matters most is that you’re approachable, reliable, and willing to listen and get involved.
Ways you can volunteer:
Mentoring
Work one-to-one with a young person to help them build confidence, explore their strengths, and think through next steps. Mentoring can focus on careers, wellbeing, or personal development.
Evening Club and Session Support
Help create a safe, relaxed space where young people can connect, socialise, and access informal guidance. This might include supporting group activities, being a steady presence in the room, or helping with light facilitation.
Workshops and Industry Sessions
Share your skills or professional experience by delivering a workshop, insight session, or Q&A. This could be a one-off session or part of a wider series.
Events and Careers Fairs
Support the delivery of events by welcoming guests, helping with logistics, speaking to young people about your industry, or representing your organisation.
Volunteering with us is about showing up consistently and contributing to an environment where young people feel respected and encouraged.
If you’re interested in getting involved, we’d love to hear from you.
