No Power Hour: Encouraging Eco-Friendly Fun for Young People

In today’s digital age, young people often find themselves glued to screens, spending nearly ten hours a day on mobile phones or playing computer games. A study by npower highlights that children spend about nineteen hours per week in front of the television. While technology has its benefits, it’s equally important for young people to explore alternative, engaging activities, especially during the vibrant summer months. This not only promotes health and well-being but also contributes to energy conservation.

Volunteering Opportunities for Young People

Vinspired, in collaboration with npower, offers an exciting initiative called “No Power Hour.” This program is designed for 16-25 year olds in Birmingham, Nottingham, Newcastle, and Leeds. Participants will work in local primary schools to inspire young children to engage in eco-friendly activities. From urban cricket to designing creative posters, these activities foster creativity and innovation while enhancing digital literacy and IT skills.

Get Involved!

This is a perfect opportunity for those passionate about education and sports to make a positive impact. By volunteering, you’ll not only develop resilience and stay positive but also contribute significantly to the communities’ health and well-being.
