NCS Trust chief Michael Lynas to step down

2 mins read Youth Work
The chief executive of the National Citizenship Service Trust Michael Lynas has announced he will step down from the role next year.

Lynas helped to establish NCS Trust in 2009 and since then organisation has put nearly 600,000 young people through the programme, according to the trust.

During his tenure, he secured NCS's long-term future by guiding it through the NCS Act and Royal Charter, both of which were passed with cross-party support in parliament.

Lynas has faced challenges, with the trust recently losing a major regional provider over a disagreement about the IT system, as well as difficulties meeting recruitment targets, which were later scaled back.
