Join us for this breakfast briefing to learn more about Bankside Futures, a summer work experience opportunity for local young people.
Whether your business has already confirmed its participation in Bankside Futures, or you want to learn more about the different ways to get involved in this summer’s programme, you are welcome to attend this breakfast event.
It’s an opportunity to hear from Sculpt UK, delivery partner for Bankside Futures, about all the ways that Bankside businesses can help young people learn about the world of work; whether that’s providing an insight into your sector and its career pathways, delivering a skills-based workshop or helping young people on the programme practice their networking and interview skills.
There will also be time to network with other Bankside businesses over tea, coffee and pastries.
What is Bankside Futures?
Bankside Futures is a two-week summer work experience opportunity for young people aged 16-18 years old who live and/or study in Southwark. Bankside Futures runs from 8-19 July, and helps young people build their awareness of different careers through skills-based workshops, employer encounters, networking opportunities and more. Working in teams, the young people will also develop a social action project that responds to issues they care about that affect our neighbourhood. They will present their ideas to family, friends, teachers and Bankside businesses at the end of the programme.
To find out more about Bankside Futures and how your organisation can get involved this summer, please contact Rachel Nicholson: rn@betterbankside.co.uk
