This 80-page, easy-to-read guide is for young people taking a structured Gap Year. It is full of practical guidance and relevant topics. 

The 6 elements needed in a Gap Year are addressed:

• Being mentored
• Generating an income
• Studying as skills development
• Job shadowing
• Volunteering
• Travelling

'"If education, society and traditions no longer provide what our young people need, I am convinced that a creatively crafted gap year will increase the young person's competence and confidence.

This is precious and perhaps sufficient to inspire a young person to venture into the forest of adulthood " - Melanie Williams, author.
