Employment and Community Skills support for those not in education, employment and training.
This team supports those without an EHCP with some of the challenges that make moving into employment, education or training for young people aged 16 to 18 difficult.
If you want to train, learn or work. You need to be 16 or 17 yrs old and not in any employment, education or training.
We can help you on your journey by increasing your skills for life and work.
The support will be delivered by a small, dedicated team that will work in a way that suits you, to identify small achievable targets, keeping in mind employment as the end goal.
