National Citizen Service (NCS)

Im new so please excuse me if I have posted this in the wrong place!
My daughter is on this scheme over the summer, she started last week and won't finish it until the end of September (so out of my hair for agaes). She is 16 and did not know what to do with herself when she finished school. My sister found out about it while doing research into what was being offered for school leavers like my daughter. I can't believe that it is all for free accomadation and food. Unfortunately i cannot post links as i am too new but if you tpye NCS into you search engine you should get the challenge .org up. She sounds like she is having a fantastic time and is currently at an outdoor activity centre getting to know all her new pals.
If you don't ask, you don't get! ;)
