Co-operative (ad)Venture Returns to Communities Across Scotland

Our Co-operative (ad)Venture project returns to communities across Scotland this September and we're looking for young people to take part.

The free online programme, delivered in partnership with Enable, supports individuals aged 16-30 with learning difficulties, disabilities and autism into education, volunteering, training and employment.

The exciting 11 week programme sees participants take part in a whole range of activities focused on enhancing their CVs with skills and experience. Not only is there the opportunity to meet new people and have fun, all those taking part also gain access to inspirational local businesses and receive an ASDAN Award in enterprise upon successful completion.
