About BSU
Become a Peer
Motivator
BSU is hosted by Brent Youth
and Connexions Service and
has been offering a wide range
of courses for young people
aged 11 - 25 years old for many
years in Brent.
The aims of BSU are:
• to enhance good
community relations
• to promote racial tolerance
• to provide enjoyment
through learning
• to provide a safe and
fun environment
• to involve young people in
the organisational process.
Peer Motivators are young people aged 14 - 19
who work with us over the summer as volunteers
to help us run our programme of courses.
These valuable volunteers spread the word about
BSU, encouraging young people to get involved
and helping to run courses. They also support and
advise participating students.
PM’s complete a training programme to support
them in their role. Being a PM is also a great asset
for future employment or further education and
will help you gain a variety of new skills.
Being a Peer Motivator is a great opportunity.
• Get work experience and make new friends.
• Get training in teamwork, leadership,
communication and gain confidence.
• Get an insight in to how to become a
future tutor on BSU.
• Go on a residential placement and learn more
about first aid, conflict management and self
awareness , work procedures and much more.
Summer University
Progress and Action
(SUPA)
Summer University Progress and Action (SUPA) is
a forum of young people aged 14 - 20 years old
that helps to plan the BSU programme. It helps
to shortlist and interview proposed course tutors,
make decisions about the design of the brochure
and markets the programme through school
assemblies and youth clubs. SUPA members are
offered training, including first aid, a residential
placement and interview skills. They also have
the opportunity to do a voluntary placement
and get a reference at the end of the summer.
All SUPA members receive an award for their
work at the BSU showcase in August.
