Our Young
Million campaign, to provide leadership development
opportunities to young unemployed people in the UK, was featured on
the BBC News on 12 October in relation to the latest UK
unemployment figures which were released that morning.
A participant on our workshop in Teesside was interviewed, and
this was broadcast on BBC Breakfast - you can watch the video on
the BBC website. Our campaign also features on the news at 1pm, 6pm
and 10pm.
BBC Chief Economics Correspondent Hugh Pym also visited our
workshop in Teesside - you can read his subsequent article on the BBC
website.
There are many initiatives that exist to help young unemployed
people find work, but few that offer them the develepment
opportunities they would have received were they in work. We are
delighted that this important issue, and our campaign to help it,
has received the coverage it deserves.
