Who we work with
11-16 Year Old in Tees Valley – Young people aged 11-16 who are in need of opportunity and looking for inspiration. They are unlikely to have been exposed to real-world work experience before and may lack the guidance, connections or understanding needed to take the next step. But we show them that anything is possible right here in Tees Valley.
Businesses in Tees Valley – We are also here for businesses in Tees Valley that are looking to address skills gaps and build the workforce of the future. Facing recruitment challenges and corporate social responsibility commitments, activities can be siloed, and some often find it difficult to connect with the next generation of talent. By bringing industry and education closer together, we are collectively shaping a better, more inclusive, more accessible career landscape.
Secondary Schools in Tees Valley – We connect to young people via their schools, which are looking to improve opportunities for their students. Students can struggle to find engaging, meaningful, and varied real-world career experiences. Through tailored programmes, we connect schools to local businesses, helping them support young people in reaching their full potential.
If you are a school looking for support with your career activities or a business wanting to help inspire the next generation, we’d love to get you involved.
