You don’t have to have experience in any or all of the sessions we run, just willing to keep an open mind and a friendly attitude.

**When do I need to be available? **The role is flexible, if you can only give us a few hours a week on certain weekdays we would really appreciate it. We welcome applications from people of all backgrounds.
