Volunteering

Volunteering with Young Tower Hamlets is a great way for young people to get involved, build confidence, and make a real difference in their local community. Whether you want to support other young people, have your voice heard, or help shape youth services across the borough, there are opportunities to suit different interests and levels of experience.

Our volunteering offer includes Community Youth Work Volunteer roles, where you can support activities and sessions in youth settings; Youth Ambassador opportunities, where you can represent the views of young people and influence decision-making; and VOYCE (Voices of Youth Creating Empowerment), a platform for young people to share experiences, develop leadership skills, and drive positive change.

Whatever your path, volunteering with us is about growing your skills, meeting new people, and helping shape a better Tower Hamlets.
