EST scheme to help young people into work
Ethical Skills and Training (EST) has launched its new nationwide scheme designed to help care leavers and young people find employment through training and mentoring activities.
Project Rough Seas will benefit 60 disadvantaged young people and help with their personal development, with challenges including climbing Snowdon and sailing in the North Sea. EST has joined forces with charity Catch 22 and the British Schools Exploring Society and will assess and evaluate participants throughout the four-month process.
Elaine Barrett, chief executive officer of EST, said: "This initiative will not only give candidates the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to take part in action-packed activities, but it will help them develop a host of skills required for the everyday workplace."
