Social Action Pitch Panelists Needed!

NCS supports thousands of young people in the North East to develop social action projects. We need a range of stakeholders who would be willing to come along (in person) and take part in a Social Action Pitch Panel (a bit like Dragons Den!)

The Social Action Pitch Panel would provide young people with high quality feedback on their social action plans, challenging them to make more of a difference through their projects.

Teams prepare a robust business plan for their social action project idea, which they pitch to a diverse panel made up of external people with a range of expertise. Panels may also be given budgets to distribute, or may offer support in kind for projects. Young people incorporate the feedback they receive into their plans to increase the likelihood of delivering an impactful social action project in their community.

Skills

Pitch Panelists help to increase young people's awareness of connections in the local community, as they seek your expertise, support and guidance for their social action projects. As well as developing their skills which are valuable for them taking their next steps into education, employment and/or training.

There are multiple dates* and locations across the region that you could take part in. *NB you can attend one or more dates.
