APPLICATIONS are being sought to help 16-19 year olds in Inverclyde make the next step after leaving school.

Inverclyde's Street League employability programme, funded by the UK Government, offers support to teenagers looking to make it into the next step of their education or into the work place.

The programme - available for those between the ages of 16-24 and out of work - is looking for applicants to take part in their new programme starting next year.

And they're looking for applicants to join their next programme launching midway through January, who could earn £65, if eligible, in the process.

The programme starts on January 14, 2025, and will support participants with goal setting, interview preparations, CV writing and employer visits whilst putting on free sports and fitness sessions in the hope of supporting young people take that next step.
