Sheffield Millennium Volunteers |
| The Director for Sheffield Millennium Volunteers is Dean Howson contactable through SOVA Regional Office. |
| Project aim: | The SOVA Sheffield MV project will support any 16-24 year old in Sheffield who wishes to take part in the project.
There are two main types of volunteering opportunities available for young people:
1) Volunteer Placement Opportunities. Young people can be matched with an organisation where they are interested in volunteering. We support them through this matching and recruitment phase and beyond. Each prospective MV has an initial consultation during which the type and duration of volunteering is discussed and any special requirements are identified.
2) Youth-Led Initiatives. The MV Project will assist and help support youth led initiatives. These could be anything that a young person is interested in setting up, as long as it involves or benefits other people or the community in general. Examples are organising a local football game, producing a group/campaigning newsletter, setting up a website, a community forum or arts project.
The main MV idea is Build on What You're Into. Volunteering need not be limited. Volunteering in the context of Millennium Volunteers is all about social action and participation. Many young people are already contributing to their communities in positive and fun ways. The MV Project provides them with recognition of this fact, and the opportunity to pursue volunteering further.
