Communities First, along with Jobs Growth Wales, are maximising the chances of success for young people in the country.
There was a good turnout for the careers information afternoon at Portakabin, Penyfan Park, Llanelli, last Wednesday. During the event free coffee and cake was on offer along with advice on work experience and job opportunities within the county.
Communities First in partnership with Jobs Growth Wales, are helping young people aged 16-24 that are job ready but have had difficulty securing employment by offering exclusive job opportunities, paid at or above the national minimum wage for a minimum of 25 hours per week.
Communities First Jobs Growth Wales Mentor Hannah Evans said: “We hope that the people who have attended the event have a new perspective on what employment support is available.”
The programme focuses on helping young people living specifically within the Llanelli and Ammanford cluster areas, to gain high-quality work experience in order to progress into sustained employment or training.
