CASE STUDY
(This is the true story of a young 25 years old man from London,
having already been through our team challenges in Bulgaria)
WE ARE A PREVIOUS PARTNER OF THE PRINCE'S TRUST
There are more than one million young people in the UK not in
education, employment or training. The Prince's Trust focuses its
efforts on those people who need our help the most.
They have four key target groups:
Unemployed young people
A wealth of research indicates that lower educational attainment and
lack of formal qualifications make it much more difficult to secure
full-time employment.
To help those with few or no qualifications to build skills,
confidence and find employment,
they provide personal development opportunities and Sound Live
courses to help the musically inclined move forward.
To assist young people trying to move into a job, training or
education - but lacking the money to do so -
they give Development Awards
Young people underachieving in education
5.4% of 15 year olds in England leave school with no qualifications
and nearly 25% have fewer than five GCSEs.
To combat school-related challenges such as truancy, exclusions and
poor performance,
they run xl clubs within 300 schools across the UK.
Young people leaving care
Approximately 8,000 young people leave care more vulnerable than most.
They are more likely to have no qualifications or low basic skills, or
be unemployed or homeless.
The Prince's Trust provides
Mentoring for Careleavers - mentors to help with decisions and
directions, lend a listening ear and regular support.
Young offenders and ex-offenders
According to a Home Office survey, 3.95% of the 16-25 population have
offended.
The Prince's Trust does not run programmes exclusively for young
offenders and ex-offenders, but
they recognise the strength of our programmes to help them break the
offending cycle and fulfil their aspirations.
