Whilst the club’s first two dates are full (and already have a waiting list), they have a limited number of spaces on the final date over the summer holidays, starting Monday July 23.

NCS is open to all current Year 11 and 12s, and the journey on the programme looks like this:

Week 2 – Discovery - 5 days, 4 nights at University of Sussex in Brighton where they will be working with West Sussex Fire and Rescue, doing a Brighton Challenge, participating in interactive and fun workshops for those life skills to get young people ready for work and their lives ahead. You will also get time to have some fun in the evenings with movie nights, ultimate frisbee with someone from the GB Team, and a Bake Off.

Week 3 – Social Action Planning - 5 days, you are back at home turf and just come in during the day where teams plan a community project working with a local charity or organisation. The club provide a bit of structure to help them along the way, but by the end of the week, they need to be ready to present their projects to the Lion’s Den (think Dragon’s Den).

Week 4 - Social Action - 5 days, in Crawley delivering those planned projects, whatever they might be. This is very youth led so could be anything from raising awareness, creating care packages for the homeless, rebranding a charity, campaigning or fundraising - whatever teams do they will feel empowered and great about what they have achieved!
