YouthBuild is a project which was created to assist young individuals between the ages of 16 & 24 years of age to gain employment.

The course is run in partnership with Jobcentre Barnardos and Claverhouse Training.

The aim of YouthBuild is to provide customers with advice, support, guidance and employability training to ensure any barriers to employment are addressed and minimised as quickly as possible.

Support and Training can be provided in areas including:

• Reading and writing skills
• Low self esteem and lack of confidence
• Communication skills
• Behavioural problems
• Job Search Techniques

All clients are fully supported throughout a 13 week work placement which is completed in a variety of workplaces.

YouthBuild will assist customers to overcome any identified barriers as well as gaining the necessary work ethics to sustain long term employment.
