Our NCS Community Experiences programme funded by National Citizen Service that will support young people across Doncaster.
The grant is part of a significant £20m funding package that NCS Trust have awarded to organisations across England.
Furthermore, these new experiences will complement NCS’ away from home residential offer, and engage more teenagers in local activities. Grants will support organisations that cater to specific groups of young people who may not have participated in NCS initiatives.
In collaboration with the National Youth Agency and StreetGames, NCS assessed more than 400 applications. Higher Rhythm was selected as one of around 100 organisations to receive funding.
“I am delighted to welcome a diverse range of local, grassroots and community organisations from across the youth sector to deliver reimagined NCS experiences. This allows us to reach more young people than ever before, ensuring they are equipped with the skills and perspective to become work ready and world ready. Additionally, our grants for targeted experiences will enable us to reach underserved young people and communities.”
“Together, we will work towards creating a country of confident, connected, caring citizens where everyone feels at home.”
Over the past decade, more than 800,000 young people have benefitted from an NCS experience. They have dedicated over 18 million hours to community based social action, while gaining invaluable life experiences.
