Dorset Fire and Rescue Service’s Princes Trust programme are looking for young adults to take part in the brand new 12-week programme at Weymouth Community Fire Service.
The personal development programme allows 16-25 year-olds to try many different activities leading up to a City and Guilds qualification.
Participants, who come from a variety of different backgrounds, will have the opportunity to spend a week away at a residential activity centre, undertake a project based in their local community, complete a work placement and participate in a team challenge, involving caring for others.
Jo McGowan, Princes Trust Programme Co-ordinator, said: “The course is aimed at helping to change the lives of young people.
“It gives them something to aim for and a better chance within the workforce.
“We run courses throughout the year across Dorset, but the team in Weymouth will commence on Monday January 30.”
For further information, telephone Jo on either 01305 753032 or 07990 950391.
