Additional Support for Young People

This service helps improve retention and encourage progression for young people who present with multiple barriers to their learning.

The mentoring and training services aim to improve retention and encourage progression for young people who present with multiple barriers to their learning.

The Learner Support Team offers services to young people on the Training for Success Programme both in training organisations and further education colleges.

Currently we offer two support services:

1. One to One Mentoring Support - a short term intervention to support young people in training organisations to address particular issues affecting them on an individual basis.

2. Getting Ahead Programme - a 12 week personal development programme delivered in a group setting to enable young people to deal with major issues facing them today. This course is accredited by OCNNI at level one.

Include Youth has been supplying this service to training providers as a Specialist Support Provider to the Training for Success programme since 2007.

We have a highly experienced team of mentors who are youth work qualified and have completed our Mentoring Young People at Risk programme.

The team of mentors is supported by Include Youth who have more 30 years experience of working with and supporting young people most at risk.
