Apply for Volunteer Facilitator

Our aim is to empower and champion young people living at the border, through psychosocial support for their personal, social, educational and emotional development.

Before applying please see the information on our website about the context we work in and your role as a volunteer. Before proceeding we ask that you take a moment to read the following disclaimers.

Diversity and Inclusion Disclaimer:

We are an actively anti-racist organisation and we do not condone saviour complexes. We encourage applications from people with lived experience. People of colour and people who speak relevant languages. If the cost of volunteering presents a significant barrier, in some cases, we are able to provide financial aid which is assessed on a case-by-case basis. For any questions regarding this, please email: youthkaleidoscope@gmail.com.

Mental health Disclaimer:

The context we work in can be difficult for many reasons. The effects of vicarious trauma, burnout and compassion fatigue are common. We also have long working days that can be tiring. In addition, the majority of us live and work together in a small team. While we have welfare provisions available for supporting each other and encouraging self care. We ask that all applicants reflect on whether or not they are in a position to cope with the context and commit to volunteering with us at this moment in time, or whether they should revisit volunteering with us at another point in the future.
