Hi

Is anyone going this summer?

I am a bit worried as i cannot make friends and the activities sound really social ...
I'm shy too and quiet any advice for me? I don't know if I made the right choice or not.

Thanks

yes i am going! what dates and location are you going to? I think it looks like a really good experience, i would just say to try and enjoy yourself and have fun

I'm going, I actually just got an e-mail from them saying something about an information evening

In August!
I have the exact date written somewhere but can't remember right now as I paid for it months ago.

Location: North and how do I talk to people? 😕

Great! What do you think about it and how will you make friends there? Any advice.

I wanted to go but none of my friends are going and I'm a really anxious person so I was scared so I didn't sign up. kinda regretting it tho

ahh i am going in July! I would say just be yourself when talking to others and all of the reviews i have read all say that most groups become very friendly after the first day

I think it's a great opportunity to try out activities that I would never have the initiative to do myself.
It's gonna prepare me for college where I will be forced to make new friends . When my friend went she said bringing food on the first day is a sure way to make friends, so I'm gonna bring like a massive bag of snacks and open it up on the coach and then people will pay attention to me lol

I'm anxious and I don't have any friends but still signed up, worried though. I don't know what I'm going to do.

Is it too late now??

I'm not sure if it is too late but if i did go my mum is a little worried as ive never been away from home properly before so I'm not sure ahhh

Hi I did NCS in February (which is much shorter) and like you, I'm quiet and shy and not great with many people, but you really get to bond with your team and I really got on well with them. The level of support you get is absolutely amazing too, especially when I did the high ropes challenges etc.

Basically, it's one of those things that you'll worry about but once it's over, you'll want to do it again

Do they put you in groups or do they expect you to get in a random group yourself?

Thanks

They put you into groups themselves, don't worry

That is better, thanks. At least it isn't as bad as I thought.

I am still worried about having to communicate with strangers as I have very poor social and communication skills too.
