‘My Voice’ - Volunteering Opportunities for Young People

'My Voice' is a two-year project which provides opportunities for young people aged 14-24 years old to join the Hertfordshire Libraries youth volunteer network in libraries across the county.

We are delighted to let you know that we have delivered (and continue to deliver) specialist training via our DS Advisors to a large number of the library staff in Hertfordshire to enable them to support volunteers with Down Syndrome. The majority of Hertfordshire libraries are now ready and keen to support young people with volunteering opportunities with them.

We have two successful placements currently underway and would love to place some more young people into Hertfordshire libraries. This project provides valuable learning and development opportunities, including life skills and practical work experience.
