Craft Group Leader

Looking For: We are looking for a dedicated keyholder/s to eventually take on facilitating our weekly craft group for the community.


What you’ll be doing: You’ll be opening the craft room every week, making sure it is tidy and ready for visitors. Greeting regular and new visitors warmly, and guiding them through a weekly craft activity.

It’s important everyone is heard and included, and to prompt people into sharing ideas and leading sessions of their own with the unique skillsets they hold. Group contributions and confidence building is always encouraged.

You’ll make sure everyone understands the craft of choice and feel it is accessible for them to join in with.

The craft group is self-sufficient in materials, but small donations are accepted.

You won’t need to make any financial contributions, but expenses will be covered.

Role

Why we want you:
