NSYI provides social and personal development opportunities for young people in the Elswick area of Newcastle Upon Tyne. We deliver regular Duke of Edinburgh activities to our senior group and many of our participants are ready to complete their Silver practice and expedition elements of their programme. We are seeking support to be able to deliver this to 16 young people from the project.
The Duke of Edinburgh award allows many young people to track their achievements and reach for their goals. Its a great opportunity for them to work towards gaining an award which is looked upon favorably by employers and further education providers.
