Description
N-Gage's goal as a charity is to work with young people to enable them to reach their full potential.


Catalyst is our detached and centre-based youth work project which operates from a mobile youth centre to facilitate workshops for young people aged 9-18 at locations across Greater Manchester.


The Catalyst Sessional Staff role involves playing a key role in the delivery of these youth work sessions on a weekday evening.


MAIN DUTIES

  • Under the guidance and support of your Team Leader deliver the Catalyst programme at locations across Greater Manchester. This includes spending time with young people, acting as a positive role model, investing time in their interests and proactively seeking to understand what motivates and challenges them.
  • Engaging in a range of sport and social activities both on and off the mobile youth vehicle.
  • Ensuring the welfare of the young people and the N-Gage team through education in such areas of their life as financial and emotional health.
  • With direction from your Team Leader or Manager, play an active role in any community action projects or residential trips which may be included in the Catalyst area in which you are working.
  • Encourage the development of young people holistically (spiritually, emotionally and physically) inline with N-Gage's beliefs and key aims.
  • Be an enthusiastic ambassador of the N-Gage charity.
  • Consider how each young person that you encounter may be able to progress into other N-Gage programmes or other partner agency services.
