Brighton & Hove’s Youth Employment Hub has been shortlisted in the national LGC Awards 2024 in the ‘Public/Public Partnership’ category. The Youth Employment Hub, run by Brighton & Hove City Council is an innovative partnership with the Department for Work & Pensions (DWP), launched in June 2021. The aim of the partnership is to provide a safe, physical community space for 16 to 25 year olds facing additional barriers and those who would find accessing a job centre difficult. Councillor Lucy Helliwell, joint chair of the Children, Families and School’s Committee, said: “It’s fantastic to see the Youth Employment Hub shortlisted in the national LGC awards. It’s a brilliant service providing much-needed support to help young people progress on their journey to further education or employment.” Click here for more from Brighton and Hove City Council.
