Our first ever Graduate Programme comes to an end with the final weekend sessions taking place on 6th and 7th March at MK SNO!zone. The course has been a big success and sees 40 young people complete the course over the last 5 months. As well as taking their skiing and snowboarding to another level, the young people have participated in sessions on working a ski season, becoming an instructor in the UK, maintaining ski fitness, finding jobs in the ski industry and other opportunities to stay involved with Snowsports (for more info follow the link below to a recent article in Natives).

Tim Fawke, CEO of Snowsport England who co-fund the course, will be on hand for the final session to see the huge progress the young people have made with their skiing and snowboarding, and hand out the awards and certificates. If you are a company that could offer an opportunity to one of our graduates, please get in touch! The next course starts in July 2010.

We have started two fantastic corporate partnerships this month with Norton Rose and Samworth Foods, both of whom have generously contributed to support Snow-Camp's work. We hope this is the start of long lasting and positive partnerships with both companies.

Along with other local charities, Snow-Camp attended an evening at Norton Rose on 22nd February to meet some of the staff and partners and personally thank the firm for its support to the charity. We felt very honoured to have been chosen as part of their programme to support sport amongst young people, and will be working hard to deliver the results we have promised!
