The Youth Worker In Me
I was talking to Jo the other day and she needed a description of what she did at Spring Harvest on the 11-14’s team…I wrote a job description;
‘Your role will primarily be to lead and facilitate discussion in a designated small group (20) of young people who will have you assigned as their group leader. Alongside this role you will need to use the other time you have to develop and build effective, professional relationships with them, enabling your small group discussion and informal education with the young people to develop further as the short placement progresses. During your placement you should continue to develop and implement a variety of informal activities to aid you in your relationship building ‘
I’m quite proud of it really…shows I can talk rubbish quite easily!
