Employment support for young people

We support young people aged 16–25 who are not in education, employment or training, or who face challenges such as poverty, family breakdown, care experience, or previous involvement with the justice system.

What it is

These services combine practical help with emotional support. Many young people we work with have had negative experiences with formal systems, and we take time to rebuild their trust, confidence, and sense of direction.

We offer:

  • Confidential, impartial information, advice and guidance
  • Career goal setting and support
  • Help with CVs and applications
  • Coaching through interviews and work placements
  • Ensuring benefits are accurate and relevant to each person
  • Travel support assistance for travel apps and navigating the way to work or interview
  • Help addressing wider issues such as housing, mental health, or relationships

Our goal is not just to help young people into work or training, but to support them to thrive once they get there.
