The B-talented programme is a full time volunteering programme for young people aged 16 – 25 from the Bradford District. Delivered by Bradford Youth Service, the same team behind vtalentyear.
The Young people are fully committed to volunteering and have to give up 30 hours a week for 40 weeks. They will also undertake a qualification at or above NVQ level 2. The scheme has attracted a diverse range of young people from various backgrounds and qualifications who are looking for a career in youth/nursery/play or social work, and wanting to help other young people.
The young people will be able to gain substantial experience by volunteering within the children and young people’s workforce.
12 new B-talented volunteers started in June and will graduate in 2012.
