2. About Get Set for Community Action
Get Set for Community Action was an exciting programme which empowered young people to make real changes within their community.
Thousands of year olds – ‘Action Leads’ – worked in teams across the UK, building relationships with local community groups to plan and deliver at least two projects each, in the run-up to the Rio 2016 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
