Our passionate volunteers generously give their time to support and make a positive difference to the lives of young people across the country. The diversity of their backgrounds means they bring a wide range of skills, experiences, abilities and interests.
Volunteers support young people with sport, art and musical activities, they work in our finance and customer services teams.
Our board is also made up solely of volunteers, who give their time and skills to ensure we thrive. Our trustees are recruited to fulfil several responsibilities, including fundraising, marketing, HR, and safeguarding.
Every volunteer strengthens us as a charity at the forefront of exceptional youth work. We couldn’t exist without our volunteers, they’re always incredible!
Volunteering at Mahdlo
Our volunteers help us to support and empower young people, creating a world of opportunity, by:
- supporting them to be physically active and develop their teamwork and sports skills on our 3G MUGA and in our sports hall
- helping them understand budgeting, nutrition and cooking healthy foods that reflect their identity and cultures
- being a listening ear, friend and mentor
- getting messy around the art table, noisy in the music room, or dramatic in the drama studio – tapping into their creativity and imagination
- supporting community and fundraising events, spreading the word about the amazing work we do
