LAURISTON LIGHTS VOLUNTEERING
(see attached document)
LAURISTON LIGHTS targets high-ability 11 year-old children from socio-economically disadvantaged backgrounds. This demographic receives very little specific support from the government, so it’s up to voluntary organisations like us to help them hone their abilities.

Our camps are entirely operated by current university undergraduates, on a voluntary basis, and we need approximately 40-50 mentors to volunteer with us this August in London and Oxford. Our final deadline is Friday 24th March, so we need to spread the word quickly, and your help would be a great boost for us. Please find more information about what the camp would involve on our website: http ://www . lauristonlights . com [1]
