Volunteer Ball Pool Hygiene Hero

Position overview

Help keep our equipment bright and bouncy for our babies, children, young people and their families at Derian House! This much-loved sensory space is full of colour, movement, and soft balls - and it's your mission to make sure it stays sparkling clean, safe, and ready for fun every week.

• Have a passion for creating clean, welcoming environments that make a real difference for our babies, children, young people, and their families
• Take pride in a job well done and enjoy seeing the results of your work
• Like working as part of a small, friendly team - and it's even more fun if you volunteer with a buddy!

What's in it for you?

• The joy of knowing you're making playtime safer, brighter, and happier!
• Opportunities to get involved in Derian House Events
• Long Service Awards
