Power of an Hour
Our mission is to bring to young people, from disadvantaged backgrounds, a network that is usually only afforded to middle class young people. LVN helps to build the networks of vulnerable young people by asking adults to donate one hour of their time to help inspire the hopes of the next generation –Â we call this The Power of an Hour.
We have worked with educationalists and behaviour scientists to create a series of engagement programs that maximise on the power of an hour. LVN help young people build networks by a)Â creating a signposting app to ensure young people are aware of all the support available to them b) creating a platform that enables youth to build industry insight and knowhow.
Our App has three core functions
- Volunteer Sign-up Portal
- Youth Outreach & Support Tool
- Help young people find opportunities
