Would you like to join the PATA Early Years Team and be part of our bank staff team working across a range of settings around the county? PATA is looking for an exceptional practitioner who would like ad hoc work across our PATA Managed Groups. You will need to be able to travel, sometimes at short notice, to our settings in Gloucester, Winchcombe, Chepstow and Dursley to cover planned and emergency staff absences. Settings use standardised documentation but retain their individual ‘flavour’ so you will get a broad range of experiences. Applicants must be appropriately qualified at level 3 and hold Paediatric First Aid certificate. For more information please get in touch for more information on info@pataglos.org.uk 

At PATA we understand the value of volunteering – most of our own team have gained valuable skills and knowledge through it. We therefore recognise the immense opportunities for personal and professional development that can be gained through commitment to voluntary work and activities.

At PATA we always welcome volunteers into our community. We have a broad range of work to fit existing skills or to help develop new skills – from data handling and social media to getting your hands dirty in a PATA managed playgroup. If you are interested in becoming a PATA volunteer please contact us.

We regularly offer training opportunities to our volunteers to ensure they have the skills and confidence to carry out their duties.
