YouthPath

Youth Unemployment is more than double the national average in some areas of the West Midlands, such as Wolverhampton, Walsall, and Birmingham, leading to a cycle of economic stagnation that impacts us all.
The Mayor of the West Midlands is inviting organisations of any size or sector, to contribute to a solution to make the West Midlands the region that gives young people the best possible start in working life.
What is YouthPath?
YouthPath is a new initiative designed to get young people into work with the aim of inspiring businesses across the West Midlands to create meaningful employment pathways, work experience, apprenticeships and job opportunities for young people aged 16-30. YouthPath will support businesses to deliver their pledge.
