Thank you to Poole's National Citizen Scheme
Bridport National Citizen Scheme group, who have raised £610 for us. Amongst other things, the team held a cake and music event to help raise awareness of Dorset Mind. The NCS Graduation Ceremony was held on 1st September at Weymouth College, and attended by Dorset Mind’s Rob Griffith. Over 100 people attended the graduation of the July and August schemes.
The National Citizen Scheme
The National Citizen Service scheme is a voluntary youth engagement and personal development programme for 15 – 17 year-olds throughout England. It helps young people build their skills for work and life, whilst taking on new challenges and meeting new friends. The courses run in the spring, summer and autumn. They consist of a short time away from home and taking part in a team project that will help local communities. Find out more about the Dorset NCS on their Facebook page here, or about the NCS Scheme in general here.]]>
