“For many young people this takes the form of personal and skills development which enhances opportunities for further education, career development and personal satisfaction.
“For many employers and education providers it is the young person’s ability to prove sustained commitment, dedication and a willingness to give of their own time and energy without financial gain which is the attraction.
