KEEN Oxford is a registered charity, which provides sporting and social activities for people with special needs. We rely on a large number of volunteers from all walks of life to help support and create fun and engaging sessions for our participants. Each week in Oxford University term time, we run five different sessions. Three of these are for children and young people: AllSorts is a fun and inclusive sports session for ages 4 – 25 on Saturday afternoons. KEEN Teens is a social club for teenagers on Monday evenings. Zig-Zag is a mash-up of music, drama and craft aimed at children aged 4-11 years on Thursday evenings. These activities are delivered by experienced volunteers and the KEEN Coordinator, who oversees all our sessions for children and young people.
When you first join us, you’ll provide basic support and encouragement to help our “Athletes” join in and have fun at our events. There are plenty of opportunities to get more involved if you want to.
Our activities for adults are overseen by the GrEAT Coordinator: GrEAT Social is a relaxed social session for ages 18+ on Monday Evenings during Oxford University term time. Each term, different volunteer leaders plan and deliver our sessions on a variety of topics. GrEAT Sports is our adult sports session on Tuesday evenings. It started in early 2016 and it runs throughout the year. We work in three week blocks, doing the same sport for three one hour sessions before changing to a new one.
In both sessions, our “Members” are supported by volunteers, whose job it is to make them feel welcome and safe, and to encourage participation.
If you’re a student, it’s really easy to start volunteering with us. You don’t need any experience or have to make any time commitments − just turn up when you can! You can still get just as involved if you’re not a student, but will need to make contact by email first. Make sure you stay up to date with all our events by signing up to our mailing list - keenoxford.org/review. 16-17 Turl Street
