Here’s an exciting opportunity for young people to be involved with the Lions in the Carnival and other events during 2025! We are looking for six young people in Year 6 to become Young Ambassadors for us! We might be able to be flexible about the number if we get lots of great candidates!

What will you do? 

You will be involved throughout Carnival, especially on Fun Day and in the Carnival Procession, but we want you to tell us what you would like to do.

•  Would you like to do some fundraising for a Charity on Fun Day?

•  What would you like to wear as an Ambassador?

•  What do you want to do in the Carnival Procession?

And it is not just about Carnival. We do lots of other things in the run-up to Christmas. Would you like to be involved with those? What other ideas do you have for fundraising that we could support you with? You can see we want you to be fully involved as we know what great ideas and imagination young people have! We hope you will find out a lot about what we do as Lions!

The 2024 Young Ambassadors commented: “It’s amazing and it’s fun!” “I liked being an ambassador because I got to do things like be in the carnival and help my local charity.” Take a look at some of their 2024 activities here: Young Ambassadors 

We want boys and girls to be involved. We think Year 6 would be the best year as you are about to move on to Secondary School and before you have too many other things to take your time. You will make friends with Year 6 pupils from other schools who may well be at the same secondary school. You need to live in PL19 or PL20 post codes. We will be looking for young people who have personality and care about the community they live in.

What do I have to do to apply?

All you have to do is ask a parent to email ambassador@tavistocklions.org.uk and give your name, your address, your school and your date of birth. If we have lots of interest we may ask you to fill in a form. Otherwise we will just ask you to come and have a chat with us to decide on our six Ambassadors – but don’t worry it will be very informal!

The deadline is Tuesday May 6th so that we can have our ambassadors in place as soon as possible.

Remember this is your opportunity to make this role really exciting for the future. We know that you will have a great time and learn so much from it. So please have a think about it and ask a parent to put your name forward!
