YES project (Youth Employment Scheme) is focused on supporting young people aged 16-24 who have been outside employment, education or training. We particularly focus on the so-called ‘hidden NEETS’ - those who are not claiming work related benefits and are not accessing statutory support. Working in Croydon, we help young people to develop their skills to either get back into education or find employment.
- Each Young person has access to a mentor who meets with them to identify what they would like to do, then set achievable goals to work towards whilst on the programme.
- Play Place has engaged with a variety of partners to support young people into areas such as music, mechanics, construction etc.
If you are aged 16-24 and have been out of employment or education, then please do get in contact. Alternatively if you know someone who is, then please refer them to us. We can support you with a range of issues such as paperwork for Universal Credits, writing a CV or finding the right apprenticeship or work experience for you.
