What happens when we’re finished then?

There are 2 extra phases of NCS. The first of which we like everyone to get involved in as it’s a great chance to meet back up with the team, celebrate your successes and see what all the other teams across the South West have been up to. If you want to “Do More” you can get involved in our Changemakers sessions which run all year round and enable you to extend your social action or get involved in existing social action in your local community.
