Our new Youth Development Programme supports young people aged 18–30 with a learning disability and/or who are autistic, who have recently moved to Share from college or a similar setting.
The programme is also suitable for young people who are interested in employment but would like extra support before starting a supported internship or similar opportunity.
Students will take part in structured learning units that help them plan their next steps.
Topics include:
employment and volunteering
digital skills and online safety
friendships and community connections
independent living
health and wellbeing
Sessions will be practical, interactive, and creative, with opportunities to work towards an accreditation.
All activities are designed to build confidence, develop skills, and support students to move towards their goals and future aspirations.
