What
Others
Say
"I just want to say to anyone who is considering doing a
Gap
placement - go for it! I have had the most amazing, eye-opening
experience of my life. I worked in a Leonard Cheshire care home
for mentally disabled residents in Japan and although the work
was tough, it has proved to be the most rewarding thing I have
ever done in my life and has to be my proudest achievement."
Gapper, Chloe Campbell from Darlington. |

"A well-planned,
well-structured Gap year gives students the chance to bring
valuable experience and fresh insights to their chosen course.
Universities and colleges value these qualities.
A good Gap year can provide an excellent platform for higher
education - and beyond."
Anthony McClaren, Chief Executive, UCAS.
"Gap provides a unique opportunity for individuals to gain an
understanding to cultures and communities different to their
own. These experiences will enrich their lives and influence
their decisions at both university and in future careers. At
Vodafone, it is these types of experiences that differentiate
individuals and provide a broader perspective. It demonstrates
both drive and compassion, which can only strengthen an
individual's position on entering the employment market."
Ruth Cooke, Graduate Resourcing Manager, Vodafone UK.
