Link Up Youth Hub is made up of 3 core team members – the Youth Hub Manager, the Job Centre Work Coach and the Youth Employability Coach. Together, they provide tailored support to young people accessing their service to help them get into or head back to education, training and employment.
Working closely with the Youth Hub Team is the Link Up Leigh Park Team. This team works alongside the hub, local employers, educators and other services to create opportunities for young people with young people.
