Through our work (delivering youth provision, community engagement and consultancy) we have been able to listen to the needs of deprived communities and identify what provision they would like. They’ve continued to tell us that they require: Support with their personal development as well as practical support with entering employment. Employees that are considerate of their personal needs and can provide flexible hours to support their transition from benefits to full time employment. Training, to aid their professional growth and support them in developing careers rather than staying put in one opportunity.
