You all seem like the right guys to ask!

Began reading this forum when DD sat for the grammars a few years ago. Am back again now that my DS is sitting in September.

This is my first post.

My DD is 13 (14 in November) and I am trying to find something constructive for her to do during the summer. Can anyone point me in the direction of volunteering opportunities that may be available to her. We live in the London Borugh of Bromley.

Can't have her in Pjs for six weeks! :lol:
Many thanks

I also believe there is a website communitylinksbromley.org.uk.

Good luck :)

I think hospitals often like people to sit at the various department floors, giving directions for people?

Our local library takes volunteers from 14, worth checking out with yours.

Hi again

Just wanted to let you know that I managed to secure my teenager a few days work experience at the Home Office over the summer.

She loved it and has been welcomed back next summer too.

All I had to do was ask!
