Can you help out with our weekly activities in Tipton?

by Life in Community CIC

Please help support the delivery of our activities at Brook Street Community Centre or another venue. We need support with setting up and down activities, creating a safe and welcoming environment for clients/general public who visit the Hub for our weekly timetable of activities, or those who attend our community drop-in to obtain advice/advocacy. Volunteers can also support sessions with children and young people in group activities as part of Life in Community’s school holiday play schemes.
We reimburse pre-agreed travel expenses.
