A new slant in life's rich pattern

Times are changing and while some people are working round the clock in the frontline, many are adapting to a flexible routine, working from home. We are all trying to do our bit to keep safe and support the NHS so that they can cope with the Covid-19 sufferers, but it can be a struggle to frame your week when every day feels like the same.

New Ventures Trust typically works with schools and universities, professionals and community groups, to scope out projects for young people. But now, the initiative needs to be in the hands of the young people as they use their own resources to find things to do once they have finished the work which has been set for them.

Students who have recently had their exams cancelled now have a wonderful opportunity to do some research into careers paths and job opportunities, to get ahead of the game when the restrictions are lifted. They can find projects online which they can add into their portfolios or CV's.

We have turned our website into an online community where people can find things to do and post their results, comments and suggestions. There is a lot going on out there as I am sure we all know, but it is a question of finding the stuff which will be stimulating and engaging.
