Great to see the interviews we did with Clarion Housing and @nationalgriduk featured in this toolkit on mentoring - a great way to support young people into work and to thrive in work.
Mentoring can be a powerful tool to support, motivate, and empower young people from marginalised backgrounds to overcome the barriers they face to getting into work, and to thriving once they’re there.
But how can employers offer meaningful mentoring opportunities for young people?
To find out, take a look at our Toolkit Unwrapped: Mentoring edition, which brings everything we know about mentoring into a bitesize guide with practical tips for employers.

Great to spread the word about @noplasticthanet and @cleanrise yesterday. Thanks to everyone who came along. Great to see #TheMargateCup on the tea stall too!
We had a great day yesterday talking all things @CleanRise and #plasticfree with visitors to the Sunken Garden Ecofair. Thanks to our brilliant volunteers for manning the stall and getting people involved in our litter picking game.

Brilliant piece on the importance of the arts for generating long-term socioeconomic benefits, focusing on #NottingHillCarnival but relevant to us all!
The arts aren't just a 'nice to have' - they're a transformative force for community revitalisation & economic growth. My piece on the Notting Hill Carnival, taking place this weekend, argues for innovative funding models to safeguard & reinvest in cultural value creation.
