We are invited into secondary schools in Lichfield and in the surrounding area.
Our aim is to support secondary school students through the process of deciding their next stage of education and development beyond the age of 16 yrs; Y10 in school.
We use local volunteers with experience of the workplace. We build confidence and resilience in Sixth form students through employability workshops, live mock interviews and advice on preparing CV's and letters of application.
Our Story
Bridge Builders began in 2016 as a project operated by
LICHFIELD CHRISTIAN Schools Work Trust (LCSWT)
We are a group of volunteers, there are about four dozen of us of to date, who come from a variety of work experience and professional backgrounds.
Last year we had positive interview sessions with more than 1,000 students.

Why become a Bridge Builder Volunteer?
Anyone with a knowledge of work and interviewing would be welcome to join the team.
The volunteers are often retired professionals who wish to 'give back' to the local community by sharing their knowledge and expertise of professional life with the students.
What's required from You?
A time commitment of a couple of mornings during term time, may be an example, increasing if individuals have more time to give.
A DBS ( Disclosure and Barring Service) is not required as volunteers work together in a large school room or hall.
