SERVICE DETAILS
BME (Black Minority and Ethnic) Homework club, an afterschool club for families who have English as a second language?
This service is part of Homelessness Prevention, specifically the community work done in Moredun. The aim of this project is to help children, who come from families where English isn’t the primary language, with their homework, and to support parents to do so.
Building and supporting resilient communities is a key part of the work done at Bethany Christian Trust. One way to do this is assisting children from families who have English as a second language with their homework & supporting parents/carers with mental or physical disabilities.
- Volunteers work one- on-one with families and carers to help them support the children in completing their homework and improving their English.
- Parents may also attend the group and will be supported and made to feel welcome. Parents are supported id they have Additional Support Needs.
- Volunteers are involved in the planning, preparing and supervision of a children’s activity. The volunteer sand encourage the children to take part in the activity.
