Youth mental Health

Research shows that youth unemployment has lasting ‘scarring’ effects on young people, and is significantly linked to poorer mental health (ACEVO, 2012). In response, The Youth Employment 2030 report found that the support most young people want right now is access to good quality work experience, especially in the wake of the pandemic.

 At North Somerset Council we have lots of initiatives to help young people find valuable work experience and employment, including wellbeing support. To find out more please visit https://innorthsomerset.co.uk/skills-support/opportunitynorthsomerset/
