The youth work at Hot Chocolate is a rich cycle of encounter and collaboration between the young people and team.  This means there are always new ideas arising of things that we could do together:  meeting needs and facilitating ambitions; changing the world and changing young people’s own lives; short-term and long-term goals.  Youth work here is always alive with opportunity and meaning; it is also complex and demanding.  Crucial to our balance and agility, to maintaining a relevant and effective support to young people, is our commitment to team working.   This post, working closely with the Youth Work Manager will lead our core programme of youth work, modelling and fostering good practice and leading and developing our team of paid and voluntary youth workers.

Company

Hot Chocolate Trust is a Youth Work organisation, based in the city centre of Dundee, operating from The Steeple Church

Most importantly, Hot Chocolate is a place where the young people feel 'at home' and feel surrounded by ‘family’.

We work with young people ages 12-21 who hang out in the city centre (around 150 different young people over the course of a fortnight). We don’t ‘put stuff on’ for the young people, instead we support them to develop their own opportunities – that way there’s a shed load more skills and confidence developed.
