You can offer a young person something many struggle to access: a real opportunity. This might involve a few hours of part-time work each week, a short work experience placement, or the chance to shadow your team.
You could provide a trial shift or a structured introduction to your workplace, helping them understand what it means to be part of a team and to contribute in a meaningful way.
By taking these small steps, you help a young person build confidence, develop key skills, and begin their journey into the world of work.
The benefits extend beyond the individual. Young people bring enthusiasm, fresh perspectives, and a strong desire to prove themselves. With the right support, they can quickly become valuable members of your team.
