Quaker Youth Work Recognition Scheme

The Quaker Youth Work Recognition Scheme provides a framework to support young people working at events, enabling young people to identify how they have developed as a result of their participation in the event.

This is done through conversation with a support person (a volunteer on the event) - there are two aims in this supportive relationship firstly to affirm the skills that the young person brings to and also develops through being a part of the event and to provide space for the young person to reflect on and be supported in their facilitation during the event.

At the conclusion of the event participants receive a certificate which outlines the skills they have demonstrated in team work, personal organisation and facilitation, plus a development point under each of these headings.

If you would like a copy of the resources that support this please contact the Youth Participation Officer on catw@quaker.org.uk or 02076631011.
