Impact evaluation with Youth Futures Foundation
We are working in partnership with Youth Futures Foundation on a large-scale impact evaluation of our programme, using a randomised controlled trial (RCT). This independent study is testing the effectiveness of our approach in supporting care-experienced young people into sustainable and fulfilling employment.
Through this evaluation, we aim to build robust evidence about what works in youth employment, not only to strengthen our own practice but also to inform wider policy and create better opportunities for care-experienced young people across the UK.
Change to Care to Apprenticeship: Making apprenticeships work for care-experienced people
Our latest research report is now live. Based on a comprehensive study co-designed with care-experienced individuals, it highlights the systemic barriers and financial challenges that prevent young people from accessing and sustaining apprenticeships.
Drawing on the experiences of care-experienced individuals, alongside insights from employers and training providers, the report explores how apprenticeships can become more accessible. It also sets out a clear roadmap for change, with practical recommendations for government, employers, training providers, local authorities, and charities.
