Youth Leader Card: Who Qualifies and What You Get

Volunteers in youth work can access discounts at museums, shops, and pools with the Youth Leader Card.

The Youth Leader Card is a way for individuals dedicated to youth work to access various community benefits and discounts. This card is often referred to locally as the Juleica.

Who it's for

This scheme is specifically designed for volunteers who are actively involved in youth work. To be eligible, you must be at least 16 years of age. It is intended for those who dedicate their time to supporting young people within their communities through organized volunteer roles.

What you get

The primary benefit of holding this card is the ability to access various discounts. These savings can be applied to entry fees and purchases at several types of locations, such as:

  • Public swimming pools and leisure facilities.
  • Museums and cultural institutions.
  • Various local shops.

This makes it much more affordable for young volunteers to participate in social and cultural activities in their area.

What it costs you

Obtaining the card is not entirely free. There are two main requirements that involve a cost:

  • You must participate in a training course.
  • You must pay an application fee to process your card.

You should be prepared to dedicate time to the training requirements as part of the process to qualify for the benefits.

The catch to know

The main thing to keep in mind is that this is a specialized benefit. It is specifically designed as a way for teens and young adults to get cheap entry to local venues by recognizing the value of their volunteer work. The benefits are tied directly to your status as a volunteer in youth work.

How to apply

  • Ensure you meet the age requirement of 16 or older.
  • Register for and complete the required training course.
  • Submit your formal application through the proper channels.
  • Pay the necessary fees for both the training and the card itself.
