At FYDP we know that moving on in life can be tricky. Changing schools or starting to look for a job can be a stressful time. It is at these points we want to give young people a helping hand. That is why we are starting a new mentoring scheme, that will pair up young people with more experienced members of the community. They will be able to offer support in writing CVs, learning interview techniques and much more.
We first realised this would be an important way to help young people after we spent some time with a young person helping him put together a CV. He has now been employed for a number of months, having been given an interview on the strength of the document we produced. FYDP manager Howard Bradley said
“In the last year we have supported a number of young people into employment and my hope is that this scheme will help us to support more young people in the coming months.”
FYDP will shortly be launching a pilot scheme for the full project. If you think you could be a mentor, then please contact us.
