City Year is the leading youth and education charity in London. We are the only coordinated opportunity for full time volunteering within English schools. No other movement for social change offers young people the chance to volunteer full time for a whole year in inner city schools. City Year recruits talented and passionate young people that are driven to make a difference. We then harness that passion to act as a catalyst to transform the lives of children and the young people themselves. Young people that join City Year dedicate a year to volunteering full time in schools as tutors, mentors and role models. In turn, we are committed to developing the skills and confidence of the young people that join us. All of our volunteers benefit from our Leadership After City Year development programme. This includes more than 300 hours of professional training and support across the year and the opportunity to carry out work shadowing days with our corporate sponsors.
