Burnley Football Club

Would you like to gain some experience in running your own business?

If so Voltage can help...

The Voltage project has been working in the Lancashire area for just under two years and has seen over 130 young people set up and run their own social enterprise business in school. These businesses have been supported by over 40 Lancaster University Volunteers.

This success has led to an exiting new partnership with  Burnley Football Club Community Sports Trust (BFCST) and a new project...

Voltage:Energise...

This project is beginning work in Burnley - we are searching for a team of young people aged between 16-25 who would like to volunteer their time to help change their local area for the better.

These days will include talks by key local business people, dynamic workshops run by university volunteers and staff on topics such as selling, marketing, public speaking and ideas development.
