VICTA is looking for volunteers to support us at our Spring Family Weekend in Doncaster. Our Family Weekends are an ideal activity to join if you are a first time volunteer to VICTA.

The VICTA Spring Family Weekend will be heading back to Dearne Valley, Doncaster, South Yorkshire. Dearne Valley promises a fantastic array of exciting activities spread across 50 acres of grassland, woodland, and wetland. The site is Kingswood’s most environmentally sustainable centre, complete with one of Europe’s largest solar panels and an on-site water treatment plant. With fantastic indoor and outdoor activity facilities surrounded by the beautiful countryside of South Yorkshire, we are sure to enjoy ourselves! The centre is designed primarily for school and youth groups so sleeping accommodation consists of standard dormitory style accommodation, please note all rooms are en-suite bathrooms.

Activities on offer at the centre include high and low ropes, zipwire, climbing, aeroball, archery, sport and team building activities, raft building and kayaking. The activities will be run by the ‘Kingswood’ activity staff who ensure everyone has an amazing time. Children take part in the activities in groups arranged by age with the support of VICTA volunteers and the centre staff. Our volunteers play an invaluable role at our Family Weekends; you are out and about supporting the children during their activities and helping them make lifelong memories.

Sorry, this activity is now closed for applications.
