Our projects
Our award-winning projects promote economic development through learning and skills programmes; employability and job brokerage services; social enterprise and environmental campaigns. We promote learning and creativity with young people through schools and outreach. This can lead to apprenticeships or bridge the way back to education for young people who have fallen out of the system. Basic skills such as literacy and numeracy are also embedded into projects, so that people can successfully develop these skills. They can gain additional accreditation, while engaging on an enjoyable course that stimulates their interest.
FreqOUT! uses technologies to engage socially excluded young people aged 8 to 25, inspiring them to tell their stories creatively. It increases young people's opportunities for employment, education and enterprise through accredited learning programmes.

Do you want to earn while you learn? Doing an apprenticeship means you are employed and paid while you are training towards an industry-standard qualification. The Apprenticeships Advice Service supports 14-24 year olds who live in Westminster to find and get into an apprenticeship.
