Join our Salto! team at Swindon Dance as a volunteer and support our inclusive dance classes for young people aged 12-18yrs with additional needs on Tuesdays from 6-7pm during term time.
You will assist the teacher and assistants in the studio; welcoming participants, supporting them during class, and ensuring everyone is signed out safely at the end of the session.
No prior experience is necessary, as you will be part of a supportive and friendly team. A current DBS check is essential. Please note that this is an unpaid volunteer role. Volunteering with us offers the chance to help individuals directly and become an ‘ambassador’ who promotes a better understanding of the challenges faced by people with additional needs.
