Last year, we helped more than 40,000 young people; three in four young people on our programmes moved into a positive outcome in work, education or training. The young people we help face a range of challenges, such as unemployment, mental health issues or some who have been in trouble with the law. We believe all young people should have the chance to succeed, and that young people are the key to a positive and prosperous future for all of us. We want to continue having a positive impact on young people's lives and we couldn't do this without the important work of Stewardship Events Managers!
