An independent youth service that supports young people across the Harrogate district is to become a charitable incorporated organisation.

To help it make the transition to CIO status, Inspire Youth is looking to recruit a number of trustees.

The closing date for applications is Sunday 4 July and an application pack and trustee jigsaw is available on www.inspireyouth.uk

Chief executive Jess Ward said:

"The successful individuals will take part in shaping and directing the organisation and ensuring that it operates legally, within the regulations set by the Charity Commission."




The organisation, which is also changing its name to Inspire Yorkshire, works with young people aged 8 to 18 across.

Regarding its search for trustees, Ms Ward said:

"We are particularly looking for people with an experience of, and a compassion for, working with young people.
"The skills we are seeking include digital transformation and digital delivery, fundraising, social media/marketing/PR/campaigning, financial and accounting, human resources and employment law."


Among the organisations that Inspire Youth works with is Ripon YMCA .

Through this and other connections in the city, it is contributing ideas and experiences designed to shape the future of services to young people in Ripon.

Its work in the community also extends to Harrogate and Knaresborough, and includes engagement with young people on health, wellbeing, lifestyle and career aspirations.

Ms Ward said:

"We offer a service, which is adaptive and responsive that meets the needs of the ever-changing world.
"Services are based on listening to young people and working with them to make sure they get the best out of all activities."

Inspire Youth has been able to extend its services through the launch of its mobile youth base, which has helped to engage young people in the community.

The mobile unit features a smart television screen, speaker, whiteboard and sensory lighting, laptop, kitchen facilities, table, and seating area inside.
