Taking Part

Blackpool, UK

Kontenido

While you are working and living at Streetlife, it is important that you develop friends and activities outside of the organisation. We believe this will help you to get a much fuller experience of living and working in the UK, and will also improve your work as a VYW. This activity will help you understand what is available and how you can continue to grow your passions and interests while here.
