Youth unemployment

  

At Spark CIC, we're passionate about reducing youth unemployment and creating real opportunities for young people to build brighter futures.

We believe every young person deserves the chance to discover their strengths, develop confidence, learn new skills and reach their potential.

Through community activities, volunteering, training and supported work opportunities, we help young people take their next steps towards employment.

By bringing communities together and working alongside local businesses and partners, we're helping turn potential into opportunity, and opportunity into paid employment. 

what is spark?

If you asked us what Spark is, we could give you a list:

We run youth clubs. We support families. We run early years groups. We create volunteering opportunities. We provide food. We deliver activities. We connect people.

But none of those things actually tell you what Spark is- Spark isn't just somewhere you go.

 Spark is something you feel. 

It's the feeling of walking through our doors and knowing you're welcome.

It's the feeling of a young person realising they have potential.

It's the feeling of a parent knowing their child is safe.

It's the feeling of finding friends when you thought you were alone.

It's the feeling of being given an opportunity

Investing in the next generation

At Spark, we believe every young person has something to offer. Sometimes all it takes is the right encouragement, a little confidence and someone willing to give them a chance.


We create welcoming spaces where young people can make friends, try new things, discover their strengths and develop skills for the future.


Whether it's getting involved in activities, volunteering, learning something new or taking their first steps into paid employment, we're here to support young people to grow, achieve and realise what they're capable of.


Because when we invest in young people, we're investing in the future of our whole community.
