🎥Have you seen our film? Young ppl from disadvantaged backgrounds are just as ambitious & talented as their better-off peers. But too many miss out on the opportunities they deserve. Together, we can ensure that all young ppl have the opportunities they need to succeed. youtu.be/z_FrE2nXFY8?...

Too many ambitious and talented young people are denied the opportunities they deserve. New data from the Office for National Statistics shows that 946,000 young people in the UK are not in education, employment, or training (NEET). youtu.be/z_FrE2nXFY8
