Make a Change week
25th
to 29th October: Celebrating 20 Years of Team: Changing young
lives, strengthening communities
We’re celebrating the 20th Anniversary of The
Prince’s Trust Team programme – a twelve week course of personal
development training in the community.
Since 1990, more than 130,000 young people have
taken part in 10,000 Teams. Team helps unemployed young people to
boost their confidence and motivation and develop the skills they
need to move into education, employment or training. More than
three in four young people who take part in Team achieve one of
these positive outcomes.
16 million hours
Make a Change Week celebrates the positive difference that Team
members make to society. Every Team completes a community project,
which benefits their local neighbourhood.
In total, Team participants have contributed more than 16
million hours volunteering in their communities. Teams across the
UK are devising and delivering projects which will be giving their
communities a boost.
