Kickstart is a new £2bn Government-funded scheme designed to create thousands of new 6-month job placements for young people.
The funding is aimed at creating new opportunities for 16 to 24 year olds putting them at the heart of the economic recovery.
Kickstart supports those who have not been in education for some time, those on universal credit, those looking to enter FE for the first time and apprentices who’ve found themselves out of work.
