Our lovely volunteers help us do what we do and we couldn’t do it without them!

We love to offer opportunities to locals who feel that they have something that they can give back to the community. We are looking for people who have a can-do attitude, enthusiasm, and are looking to help be a great role-model for youth.
Our youth centre (The Loft) is open Mon-Fri 3pm-6pm, and we need your help to run it. What we need you to commit to is 3 hours per week and continue this each week so it is consistent for the youth who can get to know who you are and you get to know who they are.

What does it involve?

Volunteers are on the front line with our youth workers. You will be helping run The Loft. Some roles include, but not limited to, opening The Loft up, interacting with youth (playing Xbox, playing pool, chatting, basketball, drawing, make-up sessions etc.) preparing food for afternoon tea, cleaning, etc.

What do you need to get started?

We will need you to provide us with the following:

• Current CV
• a NZ Police Check (must be within the last year)
• If no NZ Police Check has been done, please contact us as we can assist you with the process
• If you are from overseas, a relevant Police Check from your home country within the last year also

What happens then?

Once you have the required documents, please email them through to us and we will be in contact. We will then meet with you and ask you some questions and let you know about what we do and how you can help us at The Loft.

If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to email or call us.
