Peterborough Open Awards Centre

Peterborough Open Awards Centre Education for young people in outdoor, conservation, volunteering, skills, sport and more. POAC delivers courses to challenge, including the DofE Awards

The Peterborough Open Awards Centre (POAC) is a new and exciting hub where young people (14-24) develop skills and enhance their futures by taking on new challenges. The centre runs the Duke of Edinburgh Awards from the new Vivacity Library in Hampton, Peterborough. The course looks to test and inspire young people by taking on voluntary community projects and charity work. Physical challenges are set to invigorate and assist in healthier lifestyles. We also run our Thursday night sessions from Werrington Youth Development Centre to 19+ year olds who are out of employment, education or training. Here, we also run other awards and courses including the V Award. Future awards include climbing wall awards and potentially the Arts Award. This summer we will be running the National Citizen Award to 16 & 17 year olds. If you are interested in supporting us, please get in touch.

APPEAL FOR SUPPORT DO YOU KNOW SOMEONE IN THE CATERING INDUSTRY WHO CAN HELP?
For the past week we have been supporting the City College Peterborough initiative to deliver food to some of the more vulnerable citizens in Peterborough.
We are short of insulated delivery boxes to get the food to their homes hot. If you or anyone you know can donate some insulated boxes for the duration of this current crisis please PM me. Many thanks Steve

So our NCS - National Citizen Service course is running well, with our teams at PGL Liddington getting stuck in, even in the rain!

We’ve worked on challenges and team building exercises to develop ourselves individually and as a whole.

Tonight we finished the day with some quality guided reflection, capping off with what each person has achieved and what we have gained.
