Helping the Local Community

Futureworks offer many kinds of volunteering opportunities. Whether you’re interested in Community outdoor projects, IT, or helping young people, we have something for everyone. We have some amazing volunteers helping us.

Richard, pictured below, helps in our workshop one day a week. He also helps young people in our art sessions on another day each week.

Richard also helps with trips out such as a recent visit to York

Darren is another of our amazing volunteers. He volunteers with us once a week.

Darren

Darren is a student at Scarborough TEC and is training to be an electrician. He helps in our workshop, too.

Volunteering can be a great way of improving your CV, and making yourself more appealing to employers. It can also bring you a new sense of accomplishment or you might want to try something new.

Volunteering enables people from different backgrounds to help our learners. We currently have two regular volunteers, Ralph and Richard.

They help with our furniture restoration work.

Darren also help with our deliveries and collections.

It is something that I would absolutely recommend to anybody, young or old, who is looking to get in some form of career whether that’s care, a trade or anything else and that they need support to contact them because they will help you from the day you meet them.

Darren

Futureworks, for myself and the other learners who completed the course alongside me, has changed my life for the better, going from anxious and confidence-lacking person who stayed in bed for most of the day to who I am now.

Ben

Jonny’s confidence has grown so much since he started with us that he’s even stated that he has learned more with us than he did at school. We arranged an interview with the local Skills Village and Jonny to discuss his future and a possible apprenticeship in plastering which was very successful, and Jonny is now on working with them up at the Skills Village.
