Yes, they make new friends, but they don’t gain the first-hand experiences that change their perception, or give them a whole new passion.

Why are so many young people not doing National Citizen Service?
Young people are no longer able to develop fresh interests at a low cost and experience classes that would usually be expensive. Photography, media, drama, sport, music and enterprise are useful and enjoyable pursuits, but financial factors prevent many young people from trying them out.
