We work with a number of partner organisations to identify a wide range of volunteering and work experience opportunities for Cumberland care experienced young people.
Volunteering in the community can be an excellent way of:
- building your confidence
- gaining valuable skills and knowledge
- helping to build your CV
If you are 16 and 17 years old, we will provide a £40 per week incentive if you are undertaking voluntary work or an education/training activity. However, it must:
- be helping to prepare you for an education or training course
- not be eligible for the 16 to 19 young persons bursary
