Being a bit Goofy
|
My DS is also doing NCS but we have received no information yet apart from confirmation that he has a place. I have rung and asked questions but apparently there is no information yet! We are away most of July & return 3 August for him to start NCS on 5 August. I am starting to get a bit stressed about getting everything ready before we go away on 8 July. Am thinking packing list will resemble something along the lines of trackie bottoms, trainers, tops, fleeces & plenty of socks. Does anybody know if this is correct please 😀

My son starts the NCS program on 15th July, his is run by Youth Federation. We have known for months exactly where is his going, but we were only given the times of drop offs and pick ups on 4th June.

We are in Northamptonshire - so looks like I'm not alone then in waiting to hear as Niclb is in the same boat! Definitely seems that some areas are better organised than others though.
Thank you Helen J for the kit list info, really helpful. Just wish I had more info to work with! |
