On Wednesday 25 May, Demos will launch a new report, Experience Required, in partnership with v, The National Young Volunteers' Service, with a short film screening and reception at the Whitechapel Gallery.
Experience Required looks at the landscape of capability building programmes in the UK, and argues that full-time volunteering can play a crucial role in helping young people to engage with education and/or successfully enter the labour market.
The launch will feature an introduction by Demos’ Dr Matt Grist and v’s Chief Executive Terry Ryall, followed by the screening of a short film made by Demos and young people who participated in vtalent year, a flagship full-time volunteering programme in partnership with local authorities, further education colleges and charities.
The event will take place at 7pm on Wednesday 25 May at The Whitechapel Gallery, 77-82 Whitechapel High Street, City of London, E1 7QX, and will be followed by a drinks reception. Click here for a map of the venue.
