Do you have an idea you want to start up in your neighbourhood?

Or do you know someone who makes a difference where you live? Eden Project Communities partnered with National Lottery are searching for ten people to represent Northern Ireland on a UK Virtual Community Camp in March 2021.

Last year Eden Project Communities hosted its first ever virtual camp, and 99% of the participants rated the programme either excellent or good overall, and 97% would recommend Virtual Community Camp to others.

It has proven to be a “life-changing” opportunity for those that have taken part in the past, and gives people the opportunity to explore what is possible within their community.

Thanks to people who play the National Lottery, this certified community learning and leadership experience is offered free of charge by award winning educational social enterprise the Eden Project.

This year’s sessions have been designed to recognize everyone’s different working schedules, and considers those who may be working part time furloughed, or have additional caring responsibilities. If you know someone who might be interested – the application is simple and should take no more than 20 minutes to complete.
