THANK YOU

MYCT has been running a training course for unemployed young people from Merseyside.  We recieved funding from The Targeted Support Fund to run this course for 10 young people.  Whilst here they learned how to work in a group environment, leadership skills and completed 16 modules.   They  also passed two National Governing Body Awards that will help them gain employment within the Outdoor Industry.

Congratualtions to Gary, Jennie, Kevin, Mel, Phil, Andy, Andrew, James, Martin, Tony and Matty.  They all worked really hard during the course and achieved some great outcomes.  Keep in touch.

Out of the orignal 10 three are now employed with another three starting short term contracts in May, two others have pending interviews lined up.  This has been a great success and we look forward to running another course like this.

It is only with the help and support from organisations/trusts/funders like the Targeted Support Fund that we can continue to run these worthwhile courses for these needy individuals.  If you are interested in becoming a volunteer for MYCT and learning new skills please contact the Centre
