CashBack Connections supports young people (aged 10-16) across deprived areas of Lanarkshire who are at risk of involvement in antisocial behaviour/offending by providing one-to-one and group befriending/mentoring opportunities. The project aims to guide young people away from negative influences and towards positive pathways of their choosing, while also supporting families facing challenges such as poverty, poor mental health, or substance misuse.

Young people will take part in activities that interest them, helping them to gain new experiences, develop skills, build confidence, and (importantly) have fun. Alongside developing trusting relationships with volunteers and peers, the project will reduce isolation, improve wellbeing, and strengthen community connections. Where appropriate, families will also be offered support to address barriers affecting a young person’s progress.

With the delivery of the project about to begin, COVEY is now seeking compassionate, motivated and engaging Group Facilitators to support the delivery of the project.

Group Facilitators will play a hands-on role in delivering high-quality group activities for young people. Working under the guidance and supervision of the CashBack Connections Coordinator, they will help create safe, welcoming and inclusive spaces where young people feel supported, heard and encouraged to engage positively.

Successful candidates will work closely with Service Managers, Family Support Workers, Volunteers and Coordinators to ensure safe, effective and high-quality delivery that aims to reduce the risk of antisocial behaviour/offending, helping young people to realise their potential and move towards education/training or employment.
