WHO WE ARE

Movement to Work helps employers deliver high-quality employability opportunities for young people aged 16-30 facing barriers to work. As a registered UK charity, we offer 100% no-cost support to businesses interested in youth employment. 

WHAT WE DO

Our mission is to help young people gain access to great work experiences and expose organisations to fresh, untapped talent. Join our community and be part of a Movement helping to create worthwhile experiences for young people.

WHY WE DO IT

Young people are our future – the more we invest in them, the more we secure the well-being of future generations. With almost 800,000 young people not in education, employment or training, we have a responsibility to help set them up for success. Let’s get to it!  

 

OUR PROGRAMMES DRIVE CHANGE

.We help to create sustainable, inclusive and diverse workplaces fit for the future. By supporting organisations in providing quality work experience and employment opportunities, Movement to Work helps to drive both business performance and bring about lasting social change.

Since 2013, the Movement to Work community has helped to deliver more than 175,000 opportunities with the support of some of the biggest employers in the UK, with more than 89% (based on 2022 delivery) of young people going on to secure employment or go on to further education and training.
