No Luck with the Gov

Well I wrote to my MP to see if there were any government run initiatives that could support young people doing voluntary work in the current climate. The good news is my MP wrote back, the bad news is she wasn't able to do anything :( It looks like the deal is just with Raleigh International which is pretty good for them as it'll mean more people will be signing up. I'm still not sure how much a Raleigh expedition will help someone get a job and to what extent it's just a gap year. I'd love to hear from anyone whose been on a Raleigh Expeditions to see if they felt it helped them develop vocational skills.
