Blind Low Vision NZ is looking for a volunteer to help organise the Youth Group! BLVNZ's Youth Group is for members aged 13–25, and they meet on the fourth Saturday of every month for a different activity. Examples of what's been done in the past include a Zoo Trip (with a guided tour from a ranger and a tactile experience), rock climbing, and a cooking class (learning how to make microwave recipes).

Blind Low Vision NZ provides emotional and practical support so that people who are blind, deafblind, or have low vision can keep working and living independently.

What you'll do:
- Work alongside BLVNZ volunteers and staff to plan activities each month
- Admin tasks (making phone calls, confirming attendance, ensuring venues are accessible for members, etc.)
- Assist with coordinating/running the activities
- Drive members to and from the activities (if required)
- Help create a welcoming and supportive environment

What you'll bring:
- A full, clean driver's licence (if driving members)
- Experience or a passion for working with youth is desirable

You might be a great fit if you are:
- Friendly, welcoming, energetic, organised and reliable
- Comfortable assisting people with low/no vision

Days, Hours: Availability to meet with BLVNZ volunteers and staff 2–4 times throughout the month to plan the activity and complete admin tasks. Ideally available on the fourth Saturday of every month (times vary depending on the activity).

Training Provided: Health and Safety for Volunteers, Etiquette and Challenging Assumptions Relating to Blindness and Low Vision, Human Guiding, Introduction to The Eye and Eye Conditions, Introduction to Blind Low Vision NZ & Our Mission and Values, Creating Accessible Documents.

Reimbursements: Yes — $0.79 per km (if driving members).
