Duane Major
Personal Bio Duane Major is a youth pastor at the Spreydon Youth Community (SYC) and a network co-ordinator for 24/7 Youthwork. Duane became a volunteer youth worker 18 years ago, and says he was drawn to youth work because of its energy and the opportunities it created. |  |
“Youth is a fantastic stage of life, and youth workers can be hugely influential during this time,” Duane says. “I saw it as an opportunity to make a real difference.”
Duane enjoys working with “mainstream youth” – young people of all ages and backgrounds – and believes the community has a big part to play in ensuring all young people grow into well-rounded adults.
