Get into youth work
Warwickshire Targeted Youth Support Service invites residents to learn more about becoming a youth worker and helping young people. Warwickshire places children’s needs at the heart of all it does and works hard to ensure their voices are heard. Our aim is to make our county as safe, stable, and full of opportunity as possible for children and young people with access to good health, education, and other services.
Our youth workers are the heart and soul of the community for young people. They help, guide, and support young people aged 11 to 18 with their development and enable them to have a voice, influence and place in their communities and society. They work in local communities and spend a lot of time working with youngsters to understand how they feel and what motivates them.
The relationship between young people and youth workers is entirely voluntary – youth work often only works because of this voluntary relationship.
If you want to make a positive difference in the lives of children and young people in Warwickshire and may have thoughts of looking at youth work as a career you are invited to our open afternoon at Shire Hall on the 27th of March from 2.30 pm to 3.30 pm.
If you are interested in finding out more about the role of a youth worker and what we do within Targeted Youth Support, email clairecrawford@warwickshire.gov.uk to book a place.
