1.2.2 Work with young people to manage resources for youth work activities

Overview:

What this standard is about

This standard is about working with young people to draw up a financial and project plan for an event, activity and/or project, managing the resources required and monitoring the income and expenditure and keeping accurate records.

For brevity, the word ‘activity’ is used in this standard to cover an event, activity and/or project.

Who this standard is for

This standard is for youth workers who provide support to young people who are managing the resources for an event, activity and/or project, or for workers who manage the finances of such a project themselves.

Values and principles

Working with representatives of the sectors within youth work, LLUK has agreed a suite of values and principles which distinguish youth work from other, sometimes related, activities involving young people.  These values and principles are at the core of the work undertaken within youth work and underpin this standard.  The behaviours required within this standard include those which reflect particular values and principles.
