The beauty of NCT is that we are a family friendly organisation and a lot of the roles can be done with little ones in tow (or when they are in bed asleep!). Everyone has skills that would be useful - there are lots of roles and there is bound to be one that you’re comfortable with, to suit you.

You do not have to be a member of the NCT to benefit from the services we offer, but it helps us if you join!

The Everybody, Somebody, Anybody, Nobody, Story

This is a story about four people: Everybody, Somebody, Anybody and Nobody. There was an important job to be done and Everybody was asked to do it. Everybody was sure that Somebody would do it. Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did. Somebody got angry because it was Everybody's job. Everybody knew that Anybody could do it, but Nobody realised that Somebody wouldn't do it. And Everybody blamed Somebody because Nobody did what Anybody could have done.
