The Experience That Turns No You Can't Into No We Can!
Hear2Listen proudly partners with NCS to deliver experiences that help young people to become world ready and work ready and raise their voice to make a positive difference together.
As a national youth programme, over 150 partner organisations come together to form the NCS network.
Hear2Listen has worked with NCS since 2014, delivering the life-changing experience for young people in Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Essex and Birmingham. To date, we have worked with over 30,000 teenagers, helping them to realise their potential and smash their future goals.
But enough about us, what exactly is NCS?
NCS is all about helping young people explore who they are and who they want to be, with no fear of judgement or failure.
Where they can step out and step up and get a taste of independence on their own terms.
A space for everyone to feel at home, no matter where they’re from.
To connect with other like-minds, learn new skills, make an impact in their community and better their employability.
NCS lets them say ‘No We Can’.
NCS experiences include:
CONNECT: a free digital hub filled with bitesize content - for young people and contributed to by young people - to navigate everyday life; from debates, life lessons and creative challenges, to showcasing young people’s social action, tips on how to positively impact communities, and ways to switch off and recharge
SUMMER: a two-week experience where young people come together to connect in real life and learn more about themselves, each other, and how to give back to their local community
AUTUMN: a one-week experience where young people come together to connect in real life and learn more about themselves, each other and how to give back to their local community
CHANGEMAKERS: regular group meetups throughout the year for young people all over the country to design and deliver social action projects and make a positive difference in their local community
FUTUREMAKERS: paid work placement experiences to help young people get work ready
SKILLS BOOSTER: tools and support for further education, college and schools to build meaningful and impactful personal development, volunteering and social action curriculums, with their pupils in line with the Government’s employability and ‘levelling-up’ agenda
YOUTH RISING: A podcast made for young people, by young people. Each episode tackles important issues that matter and have an impact on young people and their communities, breaking stereotypes around youth culture.
