Youth Worker - Buchlyvie Youth Café

Two years ago Buchlyvie Community Council set up a Youth Café to provide a safe space for young people to meet, socialise, have fun, make new friends and learn new skills.

The Café is open every Friday evening during term time, 7.00 to 9.00pm at Buchlyvie village hall and is run by volunteers, who all have PVG’s through Youth Scotland and Disclosure Scotland. We have a core group of 15
-20 young people aged 12-16 years from Buchlyvie and friends from other local villages. There’s table tennis, pool, arts, crafts, games and most weeks an optional activity for everyone to join in. Activities range from baking, music, banner making, shadow puppets, football, first aid, film making and taekwondo! Young people are encouraged to take a role in running the programme.

We now have funding to employ a youth worker to run the Friday night sessions, 7.00
-9.00pm, supported by volunteers. Additional free training with Youth Scotland is available.

If you are qualified or have experience working with youth groups and would like to apply, please send your details and CV to Buchlyvie Community Council.
