Every great business has a story behind why they started and a purpose for their continued mission. This is no different with The Youth Group.

Our founder, Jack Parsons grew up in a disadvantaged background where he was expected to be the adult for most of his childhood as a result of supporting an alcoholic parent.

There are millions of young people across the Commonwealth that need urgent help, the data shows it, the young people show it and enterprises show it. Some young people need more help than others and giving a young person guidance can change their whole pathway to employment and thus their life chances overall.

Our brand is here to improve the odds for young people across the world to reach their potential in work.

Nathan Kelly, communications Advisor to the CEO’s office said:

I’m really excited for the Youth Group and Movement to Work to be joining forces to knock down more doors for young people to walk through. Together we’re capable of so much more than we can achieve alone, I know this is just the beginning of really changing the employment landscape for young people.
