Voluntary Work: Young People
(asked on 1st February 2017) - View Source
Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, how many young people are expected to benefit from the National Citizen Service between 2015 and 2020.
This question was answered on 6th February 2017
Government's manifesto commitment continues to guarantee a National Citizen Service (NCS) place for every young person who wants one so that it becomes a rite of passage across the country.
We have been working with the NCS Trust on new projections of demand, and we expect them to reach 199,000 participants in 2019/20 supported by over £1bn of funding over this parliament.
