The Youth Employability Support (YES) Project is a free service designed to give young adults (aged 15-24), who are not currently employed, the support they need to find work or training opportunities. The project has completed its initial 3 year phase and has been extended until the end of February 2022.

We are currently inviting applications from providers who are able to deliver Health & Wellbeing support to the YES Project Participants which will complement our existing programme of activities and where a physical or mental health barrier, disability or learning disability has been identified as a barrier towards employment, education and/or training.

This service will work across Leicester and Leicestershire delivering workshops on all aspects of improving a participant's health & wellbeing that allows them to progress along their labour market journey.
