Description

NCS currently has the following opportunity for the provision of NCS Field Acquisition for Summer 2020.
National Citizen Service (NCS) is an experience like no other. Designed for 16-17 year olds across England and Northern Ireland, NCS is a youth programme that runs every summer and autumn, during school holidays. Teens get the opportunity to mix with a new crowd, live away from home for a while, take on new challenges and in the process build lifelong friendships.
The programme is all about emboldening young people - by giving them a taste of independence and equipping them with essential skills for life. NCSers then get a chance to take these new-found skills for a test-run in their local community.
NCS is dedicated to providing a platform to make sure young people are heard and can engage with their community by completing passion projects, raising awareness and providing solutions to the issues they care about.
The experience might last just a few weeks, but the impact? That lasts a lot longer. Since 2009 nearly 600,000 young people have taken part in NCS, completing over 14.5 million hours of community action, and gaining priceless life experiences.
NCS costs no more than £50 - with bursaries and support for those with special educational needs or disabilities also available. NCS's mission is to give every young person the life-changing experience.
NCS Trust is an Arm's Length Body of DCMS incorporated by Royal Charter and established to shape, support, champion and lead a thriving National Citizen Service. NCS Trust is registered in England and Wales with Royal Charter Body number RC000894. Find out more at www.ncsyes.co.uk

NCS has a requirement for field acquisition services for recruitment of young people, aged 16-17, to its Summer 2020 programme. The aim is to broaden and maximise drive awareness/participation for the NCS programme. NCS plans to run a trial acquisition campaign, including targeting 'hard to reach' groups. The awarded supplier will deliver the trial acquisition campaign in spring 2020.
