Our mission is to support and inspire girls and young women. As an Activity Leader, you will create spaces where girls feel safe and valued, so that they can build strong foundations that will prepare them for life’s challenges. 

GFS Activity Leaders are people who want help deliver fun and inspiring sessions to girls and young women, with the opportunity to lead on certain tasks. 

What you will be doing:
•    Helping plan and run activities for the girls, and helping with set up, tidy up and refreshments
•    Supporting and contributing to termly planning team meetings to create a programme of activities. 
•    Leading on activities as agreed with the volunteer team
•    Sharing ideas and feedback given by the girls to the Group Coordinator to help create a truly girl-led termly programme. 
•    Helping with First Aid or Food Hygiene in the group as needed
•    Treating every girl, parent, volunteer and task within the GFS values of being girl-focused, brave, feminist, ambitious, inclusive and fun.
•    Understanding GFS policy and procedures and follow them, especially safeguarding

We are ideally looking for people who can commit around a year of volunteering minimum. The group runs every week Tuesday evening from 6.30pm - 8pm during term time.

Recruitment: You will receive an invite to have a chat about volunteering over the phone. We will ask you more about what you are looking for and it's an opportunity to ask any questions. We will also outline the next steps including onboarding, checks (DBS and references) and training process. 

Training:There is one online safeguarding module to complete and a welcome induction session. 

Once your onboarding and training is completed, you will be introduced to your local Group Coordinator who will coordinate the volunteer team and planning meetings.
