The Future Leaders Programme, which Holywell Trust piloted last year, is now recruiting 20 people to take part in the year-long programme.
The Programme includes:
- Residential opportunities – focused programme visits and sessions to include a visit to Dublin.
- Training programme – a 20-session programme examining a range of issues from Good Relations to Movement Building (final programme to be agreed with the programme participants).
- Community projects – 4 community projects will be led up and delivered by participants.

The Programme is seeking people with the following qualities:
- An interest in supporting community activity
- Aged between 18 and 35
- Willing to work collaboratively to improve the lives of local people
- Can participate in at least 90% of Programme activities
