***APPLICATIONS CLOSED FOR 2011/2012***
PHAB Young Peoples Club is based in a community centre in Penarth. The club runs from 6.45pm – 8.30pm every Monday night during term time. The young people range from age 11 – 17 and there is an equal mix of both physically handicapped and able bodied young people with a total of about 30. In addition there are a team of about 5 adults who supervise the club.
As an SVC volunteer at the club you will partake in playing games, chatting with, and generally socialising with the young people. There is often a theme at each club, for example a Chinese night, on which there’ll be a Chinese fancy dress, Chinese food available and a quiz on all things Chinese! As a volunteer, it’s your responsibility to make the young people feel empowered, improve their self-esteem and to above all … enjoy themselves!
