Life Skills
This year Mary’s helped 29 young people to employment. We join
our young people up with youth employment initiatives. We also use
direct links with employers.
25 young people have been able to gain qualifications with help
from Mary’s this year. Young people choose the topic that they are
interested in that they believe will further their intended career.
Courses are online. Mary’s pays for the course and the mentor
provides emotional support and encouragement to increase
resilience and completions. All young people starting an online
course this year successfully completed the course.
Practical support is fundamental for
allowing young people to think about
the medium term. We provided food
packages with family support 108
times this year. For young people
coping alone we gave 112 hostel
packages. Packs included food
items and basic provisions like
towels and toiletries.
