The beginning is nigh
Well it seems the project has finally began...
Although there is to be a change in direction, I have finally spoken to Camden council and in some respect have got the go ahead.
It turns out that the council have already got the go ahead for an open award centre within Camden, the person in charge also was not happy with the target age group; however...
Originally it was discussed that the NEET group was a good target group as they were not catered for, however this group requires special training and additional support anyway. Through the council, i have learned that there aren't many facilities for the award in schools and that, schools in general don't have the qualifications to run the award at Gold level.
Therefore the project is to be allowed to run if we use young people still attached to education.
It is also more likely that we will run in association with the council and provide them with a source of volunteers.
