YOUNG people across the county are taking on a series of projects as part of the National Citizen Service summer programme.
In Arun NCS participants have been raising awareness of local charities Coastal Mind and My Sisters’ House.
Their efforts were given the seal of approval in a recent visit by Nick Gibb, the MP for Bognor Regis and Littlehampton
NCS is a country-wide programme which brings together groups of 16 and 17- year-olds to help build their confidence, mix with different social groups and take part in community projects.
Mr Gibb said: “It was a real pleasure to meet the young people. They were all engaging, confident people who have clearly enjoyed their four weeks.”
