If you are under 18 and would like to help us running X:site Newbury then join the X:site junior team!

What does a junior team member do?

We need team members in the following areas:

Group leaders: working with a small group of children, or supporting children with special needs. As a junior team member you will work alongside another team member.

Support team: helping with tasks such as registration, making refreshments and acting as a steward

Technical team: helping run the PA/audio visual and technical side of the event

Band: musicians to play in the worship band (please note that band members also work with the children alongside the group leaders)

Non-event team: helping with jobs between the events such as envelope stuffing, photocopying and buying resources


When will I be needed?

X:site takes place on a Saturday evening once every other month. Team members need to be available on at least 4 of these dates - see the Event Calender:

Commitment levels will vary depending on the role.

On the day, the event will start at 6pm, however group leaders, technical team and the band are expected to arrive at 3pm. This is in order to pray together, prepare the programme for the evening and build relationships with one another. We also have a meal together. We feel this is an important time for sharing our gifts and supporting each other in our ministry within our different churches, but networking together. All team members are very much invited to attend.

Who can be a junior team member?

All junior team members must be:
  • committed to Christ
  • enthusiastic and energetic
  • mature enough to be responsible for children

Please note parental permission is also required

How do I apply?

As a junior team member you are not required to go through the criminal records bureau checks (CRB)

If you have already served on a Scripture Union Team (Spring Harvest, Beach Missions etc...) you will only be required to complete an update form.
