These free materials can be used in any way that works for you, as you guide your young people through their leadership journey:
If you’re looking for quick, impactful training sessions before and after delivery, we’ve created a set of guidance cards designed to support young people. These resources provide feeling prepared and fully supported throughout their experience.
Download the cards here.
If you’re looking to provide a training day for your young leaders, we’ve designed a training pack to equip them with essential tools for their first steps into volunteering. This pack is tailored to build their confidence, enhance their leadership skills, and ensure they feel prepared and empowered in their roles.
View the pack here.
The tutor notes are for the lead of the training day to utilise, to ensure they have all the equipment, key points and task prepared.
