National Citizen Service (NCS) is a life changing experience open to all 16 and 17 year olds across England. It is a unique three week full-time programme of fun and discovery that benefits both young people and society. Participants build skills for work and life, while taking on new challenges and adventures, learning new skills and making new friends.

Taking place outside school/term time, the part-residential programme is made up of four sections that focus on personal and social development including leadership, teamwork and communication skills. Not only do 16 and 17 year olds have the chance to give something back, but it also looks great on CVs and helps with job, college and universities applications, alongside raising future aspirations.

16 and 17 year olds of all backgrounds and abilities from across England can sign-up to NCS now and find out more information by visiting www.NCSyes.co.uk or www.facebook.com/ncs
