Kickstart is a new government scheme for 16-24 year olds. The scheme offers funding to create six-month long job placements all over the UK for young people currently on Universal Credit and at risk of long-term unemployment. They will receive a salary at the National Minimum Wage, and a wealth of experience and training to get them ready to tackle the world of work.

The NCS Trust is supporting the Kickstart scheme with support packages for employers and work placements for young people aged 18 to 24. To find out more about each offering follow the links below:
