This an early intervention programme that uses a voluntary mentoring approach to engage with young people aged 8 to 19 years who are affected in some way by drugs/alcohol or anti-social/offending behaviour. Our Mentoring services match young people with trained volunteers to build positive, trusting, supportive and secure relationships. These relationships are expected to last for the long term, with frequent and regular meetings.
TCA delivers a number youth groups across Angus, Dundee and Perth & Kinross, which offer volunteer opportunities as a group co-facilitator. In this role you would help plan delivery of the sessions, support facilitation at the groups and help engage the children/young people in the activities.

Board members have a responsibility for governance of the charity and therefore meet approximately every 3 months to discuss activities undertaken by the charity. As a trustee you would contribute actively in giving strategic direction, setting policy, defining goals, setting targets and evaluating performance. In addition, you would safeguard the reputation of the organisation, may be asked to represent TCA at functions and meetings, and play a role in the sub-committees of the board.
Without our amazing supporters we would not be able to provide our vital services for the individuals, families and communities of Tayside.
