Young People and the Economy

The young people of today are living in an era where around one in five young people in the UK are not in work, education or training. Youth unemployment costs the UK economy £10 million a day in lost productivity, while youth crime costs £1 billion every year.

We address this by offering practical and vocational support and courses to young people in becoming confident individuals who are physically, emotionally and socially healthy and to become responsible citizens who are able to make positive contributions to society.

We talk through experience, as we have been managing and supporting young challenging persons that have been in the care system for most of their lives as well as Young offenders on (MAPPA) Multi Agency Public Protection Arrangement’s, Sexually Harmful and young people displaying Sexualised Behaviours, Autistic Spectrum Disorder, Asperger’s Syndrome  and Learning Disabilities.
