Young People Can Do Wonderful Things

Dreamscheme is a community youth development scheme based on a simple concept of WORK > POINTS > TRIPS. Young people are enabled to carry out community-based work projects for which they earn points. Points can be exchanged for trips or activities of their choice.

Dreamscheme is now running in Bradley Stoke this summer holiday, for 8-16yr olds funded by Knightstone housing. We have worked with a group of young dreamschemers to form a Core group. They have identified volunteering work that they and other young people can do to make a difference.

The benefits of Dreamscheme are: Uses the energy of young people in a positive way; Gives them a sense of purpose; Makes young people a valued part of their community; Assist in young peoples personal development; Promotes volunteering; Provides positive engagement between agencies and community members.

Volunteers – CRB checked volunteers interested in rolling their sleeves up and helping with the work and reward activities are welcome to become involved, please contact us!
