UYG ​- Unleash yourself with Gladness

Unlocked Event was built on the great partnership work already underway across Tonbridge, this event was designed to support young people with the Youth Guarantee by bringing together employers, training providers, Recruitment Specialists, and Youth Work Coaches.

The event will be centred around the theme: “How do I…?”

The aim is to provide young people 18-24 with clear, practical pathways into employment and development, including:

  • Local employment opportunities
  • Skills development and training options
  • Wellbeing support
  • Access to current vacancies
  • Work experience opportunities

It was a fantastic opportunity to showcase our organisation, connecting with local young people, and continue the positive impact we are already making to so many clients.

SWK Team have had our Guided Self-Assessment with IPS Grow which was full of great interaction from the team.

We are also happy to share we will be hosting a Job Fair at Maidstone Community Support Centre on 24th September.
