Newcastle United Foundation is a charity that uses the power of football and the passion people have for Newcastle United to engage all corners of the local community. Part of their engagement involves delivering the NCS programme to 16-17 year olds. NCS builds confidence and experience by taking participants out their comfort zones in a range of challenging settings and provides them with skills to be used in work, university and life.

The exposure to these opportunities will provide outcomes and a skill set that can be used later in life, such as starting a job, apprenticeship, university course and/or college.
