UK Youth is a leading charity with a vision that all young people are equipped to thrive and empowered to contribute at every stage of their lives.
With an open network of more than 8,000 youth organisations and nation partners, we are focused on unlocking youth work as the catalyst of change that is needed now more than ever.
For many young people their youth worker is the only person they openly talk to and their youth organisation is the only safe space they have to be heard and to explore their character on their own terms.
Summer Jobs Programme
Our new Summer Jobs Programme offers paid summer work placements for 16-25 year olds who are at risk of violence.
The programme will provide young people with direct employment opportunities in with employers in their local area. Young people will gain key skills needed to support future employment opportunities along with being paid for the placement. The six-week programme includes a preparation week and five weeks of work experience, all with the dedicated support of a youth worker.
