A new report, released today by the Learning and Work Institute and The Prince’s Trust, finds an increase in mental health conditions and low self-confidence are key factors preventing rising number of young people out of work from entering employment.
The report presents an opportunity for almost half a million (484,000) young people not in work, education or training (NEET) to get into work if given the right support. Supported by HSBC UK, the report is based on new labour market data analysis, a Kantar survey with NEET young people aged 16 – 24 from across the UK and two focus groups with young people.
