We encourage our local businesses to participate in the programme since it brings students and the professional world together in a meaningful way and allows both sides to benefit from the experience.
The projects can take any form, as long as there is an authentic outcome which is of genuine value to the organisation. Previous examples include: a training and staff development tool for the Department for Education, a ‘how to’ computer guide for a local elderly home and a film on life in the community for a social housing organisation.
