The Collective has delivered various engagements with young people throughout the year, utilising funding and member contributions to showcase careers in hospitality and provide employability skills to a variety of young people from different backgrounds – particularly focusing on young people who are NEET or at risk of NEET, have special education needs or a disability, and are struggling with anxiety or confidence. These engagements have allowed hospitality businesses to engage and work with young people to provide them with transferrable employability skills, work placements or opportunities and give them self confidence in their abilities and futures. These activities have prevented young people from becoming NEET and encouraged those in households of generational unemployment to consider careers in the future, and how prosperous these careers can be. The Collective has seen positive outcomes from all of its activities including a 15 to 90% increase in the number of young people considering a career in hospitality, this ensures there will be more employable staff in the hospitality sector which is the third largest sector in Cornwall, accounting for 1 in 5 jobs in Cornwall. Additionally, 38 of the 40 young people who have been supported on the Collective Cafe programme – developed and delivered by CHC – have had improvements in their behaviour, performance and attendance at school following their time on the programme. The Collective also delivered activities for young people in or leaving care to support their transition, give them confidence and new employability skills. In addition to our work with young people, the Collective has supported hospitality businesses with steering groups (following the liquidation of Visit Cornwall) to support in the building of a new DMO. The Collective has also provided training for hospitality businesses to upskill them in a variety of ways to improve workplaces through HR and managerial training, improve customer service and showcase hospitality a profession with clear progression pathways.
The company stakeholders are our members and partners but would also include anyone who has used our services such as schools and education organisations. We consistently ask for feedback following the delivery of any training, workshops or activities to understand the impact it has had and how – if at all – anything can be improved. We gather member feedback for training and the overall support/membership annually to understand what members need support with, are struggling with and what is going well. This is covered in a survey and at our Members Conference. Schools are consulted on how they found activities that we deliver and are often collaborating on developing the activity, or how the activity will run as they understand their student needs best. All feedback is discussed internally, by the Directors, and any improvements are determined and then put into action.
