Springboard is part of the 'Backing Young Britain' campaign, and will be supporting over 400 young people from across the UK with training and work placements that will provide them with the necessary skills to secure employment in the Hospitality, Leisure and Tourism Industry in London.

These training programmes are being delivered between January 2010 and March 2011 and Springboard will be delivering sector specific pre-employment training to young people aged between 18-24 years. Our programme is so successful it has recently been described as "Best Performing" by Central London Job Centre Plus.

The aim of this programme is to offer the specialist support required to move these young people into a rewarding work placement or a Six Month Employment part funded by The Springboard Chairty within the hospitality, leisure and tourism industry.
