Volunteer with YES

Youths Empowered for Service is a ground-breaking partnership that transforms young lives — from age 11 through to early adulthood. And it runs on the heart of its volunteers.

Whether you can give an hour a week or a whole season, there's a place for you. No special qualifications needed — just warmth, reliability and a belief that every young person deserves someone in their corner.
