This involved working on the NCS Trusts flagship annual programme, NCS Leaders. I worked alongside a team leader and was responsible for a team of 12 young people and their safety through the activities that took place at the residential venue of Sevenoaks School as well as at offsite locations which included Central London. Throughout this week I was involved in the delivery of certain sessions such as leadership styles. I also played an active role in facilitating reflections with the young people which allowed them to review their days and consolidate the skills that they had learnt during that day. Show less
