The Government’s Kickstart Scheme provides funding to create new job placements for 16 to 24 year olds who are at risk of long term unemployment.
The scheme allows organisations to:
- Create an employment opportunity for individuals who are unemployed and aged 16-24
- Access 100% of the funding for a post of 25 hours per week, and for a period of 6 months
- Apply for £1,500 towards the cost of training or any other costs
