What is this service?

Pathways is a safe, relaxed space where young people can access practical support and build confidence in taking their next steps. The drop-in is designed around each young person's individual circumstances, whether they have recently left education, are struggling to find work, have lost motivation, or are unsure about what direction they want to take.

Support can include exploring interests and strengths, identifying suitable courses, apprenticeships, volunteering or job opportunities, developing employability skills, completing applications, preparing for interviews and creating or improving a CV. Young people can also be supported to identify barriers that may be affecting their progress and look at realistic ways to overcome them.

The session is informal and flexible, meaning young people can come along for a quick chat or stay longer if they need more support. They can work independently, speak privately with a member of the team or simply use the space to take some time out while figuring out their options.

What we offer?

Weekly 1-1 drop in support.
