Funding available to support young people into employment.
We have been successful in a bid for over £245,000 of government funding to support more young people looking to pursue a career in the creative industries. The funding awarded for this project is part of the UK Community Renewal Fund, a pilot programme that is aimed at helping those most in need by providing support with employment and skills.
