One of our ambitions is that all children in Norwich have the information, skills and support they need to move into successful careers and go as far as their talents and drive will take them. This relies on volunteers to share real world experiences and inspire children about the future.

Many primary and secondary schools in Norwich also run their own upcoming careers activities and are looking for volunteers – how can you help?
