Kayleigh Ward, Youth Work Apprentice at Young Gloucestershire, talks about her move to work on the Development Team supporting the delivery of the Prince’s Trust Team.

 

I am excited to be supporting the Prince’s Trust Team I nearly did team as a young person but took a different journey and then completed my Level 2 in youth work and am currently doing my Level 3.

 

I have heard that the course is a fully packed 12 weeks and there are some really great activities. I am looking forward to giving young people a helping hand and trying to achieve these young people’s potential.

 

My first week on this project was fun. We went out and about promoting in shopping centres, visiting people and phoning people on recruitment to find young people to join our TEAM!! We have recruited 15 young people and I am looking forward to getting to know them more.

 

I can’t wait to start working with the young people to see the difference in job roles as well as how team works. I think I will really enjoy this job role as it’s something different and it will also give me new skills.

I am very grateful for being offered this role and I will try my best at all aspects.
