Community Foundation for Merseyside Awards

By | General | No Comments

Rampworx at the Community Foundation Awards

On Thursday 17th June a group of people from Rampworx were lucky enough to attend the Community Foundation Awards night at the prestigious Anglican Cathedral. We had been nominated for the Young Transformers Award, which is basically an award for projects that help young people.

Last year Rampworx was awarded 3 grants to help develop the skatepark and these included a Video Project, the creation of the Mac suite and this summer Rampworx will be able to offer free and discounted entry for underprivileged local groups and young people. The event itself was amazing. There must have ben at least 300 people there and we all had to dress up pretty smart (suits!), which was a pretty new experience for the likes of Jonny Oates and Andy Gilbert! 🙂 We all enjoyed a great 3 course meal and met some of the local politicians, the Duke of Westminster and Roger Phillips from the BBC. It was great to see other youth projects there too and we had been selected as one of four projects in Merseyside to win the award. Unfortunately, we didn’t win this year, but that was Ok as another great local project won and to be fair it was just great to be nominated… after all it was our third year running so we must be doing well! Hopefully next year we will be nominated again. Thanks to everyone who supports Rampworx every week too and helping us get where we are.

By | General | No Comments

Our friends over at the BBC are working on a new TV series about the resturant industry. If you are interested in this line of work please read the following, this is a fantastic opportunity to get an inside view of the industry.

We are looking for young people aged 17-30 to take part in a challenging new TV series for the BBC.

Do you want to find your dream career but dread the idea of a dead end job?

Do you feel you’ve got potential, but think no-one is willing to help you realize it?

This is life-changing opportunity to train in a glamorous industry where you get to travel, learn about great food and wine and potentially launch into a new career

To find out more or apply online go to www.ricochet.co.uk ‘Take Part’ or call 01273 224 824.

BBC and the BBC logo are trademarks of the British Broadcasting Corporation and are used under licence.

We are making a brand new series offering young UK residents the opportunity to train as front of house staff in the restaurant industry. The show will be fronted by a top restaurateur.

We will select 8 young people aged 17-30 to be filmed for the series. We are looking for candidates from across the UK, from a wide variety of backgrounds, who have yet to find their direction in life. We are looking for people who, we believe, have the potential, enthusiasm, character and skills to become top waiters. We are looking for people who are comfortable being filmed and who we think the audience will best relate to – so we will be taking lots of different qualities into account when we chose the final 8 trainees.

The final 8 trainees will receive 8 weeks’ intensive training as waiters and wine waiters with some of London’s finest front-of-house staff. The aim is to help them build the confidence and skills they need to secure a good job in the restaurant industry. We will film this process – at present the plans is to transmit the experience over 8 episodes on BBC2. Over the eight episodes the trainees will experience a wide variety of mentoring, real life experience and testing. Although there is no elimination, the intention is that at the end of the 8 weeks two trainees will be chosen by the top restaurateur to take up 6 month placements in major restaurants and hotels.

Rampworx now offers Student Discount!

By | BMX, Event, General, Inline, Offer, Skateboard | No Comments

We know how hard it is being a student! All those essays, projects, deadlines, lectures, debts…we have been there, got the t-shirt and eaten the infinite amounts of Tesco economy pasta. However if you are in further education, College or University and have a valid student card maybe we can help you out…just show it at reception and you will be given Rampworx Members prices on your session!

It’s as easy as that, so now when you come to the skatepark in-between doing your work you can save a little cash! Every little helps 😉
