Council Teams Up With The Prince's Trust
Antrim and Newtownabbey Borough Council has once again teamed up with The Prince's Trust to help re-engage youths in education, training and employment.
The young people, aged between 16 and 30, will be helped through the Trust's Development Awards Programme.
The Council recently contributed £10,000 towards programmes being delivered by The Prince's Trust in the Council area, with Development Awards to be offered to 40 local young people.
The awards are earmarked for young people who are unemployed or working fewer than 16 hours a week, or in education fewer than 14 hours a week. If they meet the eligibility criteria, they can receive up to £500 to cover costs such as course fees, transport or equipment.
This is the third year of the Council's partnership with The Prince's Trust, with £30,000 contributed to supporting young people in the area.
The Prince's Trust has provided financial assistance to a number of young people across the council area, enabling them to take the next steps to develop their skills and qualifications, enhancing their ability to gain employment.
