I believe that it’s a huge opportunity to share my skills and experiences that I have gained over the past few years. I want to understand and help young people in regards to the difficulties they face when it comes to achieving their goals and aspirations. Reaching out and providing the support individuals require in relation to unemployment is in my view extremely vital. With the support of Youth Employment UK I am certain that great opportunities can and will be created to assist young people in realising their strengths and capabilities. The experiences will be a positive learning process for the young.
This is a great opportunity to work with like-minded individuals who are passionate about reducing the level of youth unemployment. This is an opportunity for me put forward some ideas I have to help young people who are struggling to get into the job market. This is a great platform to also connect with employers, where we can work together in endorsing young talent. I want young people to achieve their goals, have their voices heard and to receive equal opportunities – I am here to support young people and improve the current situation and this is why I am a Youth Employment UK Ambassador.
I believe that in order to significantly reduce youth unemployment, we must put our trust in them, believe in them, support them and interact with them in a way which will make a difference, to their future and the future of the UK.
I am passionate about helping young people find employment. I feel young people have much more to offer the community than people believe, and I would like to challenge the negative perceptions currently around. I have a varied amount of experience volunteering, working and in education and I am eager to share these experiences with other people.

Youth Employment UK CIC Youth Friendly Badge (CC) The Youth Friendly Badge (CC) celebrates and recognises your commitment to young people in the UK. It is a public demonstration of your pledge to be a “Youth Friendly” business. In the UK nearly 1 in 5 young people are unemployed; youth unemployment is a growing social, economic and moral problem with a cost to every member of society, but above all, to a young person, somewhere near you. Already thousands of businesses in the UK support young people by attending careers fairs, providing work experience opportunities and taking on young people through apprenticeships, internships, graduate or entry level roles. We know that there is still more to be done and so we want all UK employers to apply for the free Youth Friendly Badge (CC), demonstrating to their communities, to young people, to future employees and to their customers that they are invested in supporting youth employment. There are just 3 simple steps to receiving the Youth Friendly Badge (CC). There is no charge and no financial obligation. You just need to be prepared to invest in supporting young people. Not only will you benefit from the recognition the badge brings to you, but your organisation will also benefit by its investment in its future workforce and future customers.
