Summary
About the role:
Our targeted youth work and projects, alongside arts and sport are at the heart of Salford Youth Zone’s offer to young people. Feedback from young people and experience from operational Youth Zones tells us that some young people want dedicated and safe spaces within their Youth Zone.
This role is based in the health and well-being room (which is equipped with hairdressing and barbers chairs and a nail station) and you will work with all young people to provide a wide range of opportunities from informal education sessions, wellness projects, advice and support and the more traditional health and beauty pastimes.
