Local businesses and professionals needed to support young people in Blackpool!
Barclays LifeSkills is working with education charity The Talent Foundry to deliver a series of employability workshops across schools in Blackpool this academic year.
They’re seeking local businesses and representatives to support the programme. Ways to support include -
- Be a mentor - supporting a group of young people throughout the programme across in-school and out-of-school workshops, offering insights into the working world and tailored advice on their career steps
- Be a guest speaker - a short 20-minute presentation outlining your sector, the opportunities available and guidance on career steps
- Host a workshop - if you have a suitable space (e.g. large meeting room or an office/warehouse/facility offering tour opportunities) make this available to hold an out-of-school session.
They’d love to hear from anyone who’s based in or around the area and would be keen to support this brilliant initiative.
If you would like to get involved or find out more, please contact David Mawby from The Talent Foundry at 07412651165 or david.mawby@talentfoundry.org.uk
