NEW π¨ | The youth unemployment rate is the highest since 2020 at 13.7% - with long term youth unemployment rising by 83% over the past year.
Young people need genuine opportunities.
The governmentβs plan to Get Britain Working must focus on supporting young people into employment for aΒ betterΒ future.

Today is #WorldMentalHealthDay. This is for you if youβre going through a difficult time. These messages come from our online community.
ALT The most important relationship you will ever have is with yourself. Treat yourself with kindness and compassion.
ALT Don't try and be like other people to fit in. Your true, authentic self is who the people in your life will gravitate towards. They will love you for you.
ALT Remember that this is temporary. Your life is just beginning. You will experience so many things and you'll be so glad you kept going, even when things were hard.
ALT I promise you, better days are coming.
