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.

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.
