While we are no longer out and about we are still here finding ways of supporting schools and businesses during these uncertain times. We hope to be able to continue our service in some form over these next few months, to produce helpful resources and contacts and help you plan ahead for later in the year when normality resumes.

We will be using this time to make sure we are working with businesses to develop offerings and activites ready for September.

We would like to hear from you if you have any ideas on how we can improve this service for your school?

Do you have any ideas of the best ways we can help your school forge greater links with local businesses?

Is there something we can help you with now?
