Give it a go with i-Time
IAF's i-Time Programme extends our commitment to supporting NEET (Not in Education, Employment, or Training) young people by offering them something positive to look forward to every week. Expanding on the success of our original Mansfield drop-in session, Communi-Tea, i-Time motivates young people to reconnect with their local community through a free, structured timetable of activities in Ashfield, Mansfield and Worksop.
