Volunteers

Do you enjoy spending time in the great outdoors and want to share that enthusiasm with all those who visit Fairthorne Manor? We would love you to get involved in our range of programmes supporting the delivery of activities ranging from ecology sessions in our water environment through to high ropes and water activities.

Our café serves members of the local community, nursery families and those taking part in one of the many activities taking place across the week. This role will help our busy team and full training will be given in all aspects of the café and the centre.

If you love working with school age children and you have the school holidays free, put your talents and skills to good use by supporting on our Daycamp and holiday residential activities.

We would love for you to share your passion for all things digital with our local community in a relaxed and informal environment. Whether they need to open an email account, complete online forms or just start from the beginning to switch the computer on, you can be there to help them.

Our events are a key part of the programme delivered at Fairthorne Manor and we would love you to join the team and provide top knotch support to help them run smoothly.

We would love you to bring your enthusiasm for the outdoors to benefit our physical environment. Our gardens are well used by our children in the nursery and we would love to see a gardener helping us to keep on top of regular maintenance as well as assisting with horticultural projects we will be undertaking in the coming year.

Do you have a love for books, meeting new people and helping deliver community activities? Our library serves members of the local community whether they are looking to find their new favourite read, meet like minded residents in a community activity or just catch up with friends over a cup of tea.

We would love you to bring your practical skills and abilities to help us maintain our buildings; whether you can paint, put up shelves, keep on top of general maintenance or enjoy creating areas for our young people to spend time in, we would appreciate your help.

We would love you to bring your enthusiasm for educating our early years children in whatever way you can; whether it be a storytelling session, teaching yoga or Makaton or simply helping us during lunchtimes.

We would love you to bring your enthusiasm for helping early years children and their families at our programmes at Eastleigh Community Centre

We would love you to bring your energy and enthusiasm to help deliver fantastic residential experiences at our beautiful location in Shanklin.

Can you help us to park vehicles, check in the groups, operate the dining room, serve food, help in the tuck shop, keep the site clean, run arts and crafts sessions, marshall the disco, paint nails and hair braid, pack up the tents at the end of the weekend? Or could you help us on the pastoral side of the festival by just being part of the welfare team and being there for young people to talk to.

If you love working with 11-17 year olds and you are free after school, put your talents and skills to good use by supporting on our youth club. You will support a member of staff interacting with our wonderful group of young people and taking part in the fun activities across the year.
