The project aims to support young people in South Bristol aged 17-21 who are currently unemployed or not taking part in any education or training.
The Youth Guarantee will create a pathway into employment using a three-step approach:
Step One: Career Coach Support
You will be matched with a Careers Coach who will undertake a skills and wellbeing check to fully understand your profile, ambitions and needs. You will work with your Career Coach to create a personalised action plan which will support you at each stage.
Step Two: Pre-Employment Support Programme
- Complete a 4-week employability course based either in The Gate House Centre, Hartcliffe or The Park Centre, Knowle West.
- You will be supported to build the skills you need to get ready for the next step in your journey.
- We will help you to build a CV, give you to the tools to search for and apply for jobs, interview, what to expect from work (contracts of employment, holiday and sick pay, health & safety and wellbeing).
Participants will receive £150 love to shop vouchers on completion.
Step Three: Work Taster
- A Career Coach will support you to identify your interests and ambitions and match you to a work taster/work experience placement.
- We will provide you with a bus pass and support with organising the right clothes for work.
Participants will receive £100 love to shop vouchers on completion.
