YOUNG LEADER opportunities….
Would you like to the opportunity to be a Young Leader at Ethno England 2008?

Ethno England are looking for two Young Leaders aged 18 to 30, to assist with the running of the week camp from 17 – 23 August at Sneaton Castle, Whitby.

This is a great opportunity to gain experience in the running of an international music event, supporting the artistic delivery during workshops and informal activities and have the opportunity to further your musical career and experiences. Young Leaders are a valuable addition to the Artistic Leader team and ensure that the participants have a positive and exciting Ethno experience.

The Young Leader role will include assisting with the running of the camp and supporting the Artistic Leader team, organising and leading a range of appropriate informal break-out activities, ensuring the participants are integrating with one another and being the first point of contact for the participants. Ethno England will provide accommodation, food and entry to some Whitby Folk Week events.
