Have you 2 hours to spare.
Several new Youth Clubs are in the process of opening across the South West of the County. Facilitated and overseen by Waterford and South Tipperary Community Youth Services (WSTCYS) these clubs will provide a safe and supervised environment where members can express themselves and learn from their peers. Volunteers play an essential role in this process, and without them, the clubs can not operate.
It is fantastic to see and hats off to WSTCYS for bringing new social outlets to teenagers in the areas of Ardfinnan, Newcastle and Clogheen.
Volunteering with WSTCYS you will get:
- The opportunity to gain valuable skills.
- To avail of excellent training and workshops.
- The opportunity to use what you already know to benefit others.
- The chance to have a positive impact on the lives of others.
What current volunteers are saying?
I got involved because I wanted to give something back to my community. I like the fact we can give young people a safe environment to have fun, share experiences and learn with their peers and leaders.

Young People are the most interesting people you can work with. It is incredibly rewarding with a different experience everyday. Having the opportunity to be part of that helps me grow personally and professionally.
