Our vision is that all young people have opportunities for a better life, now and in the future. We are thought leaders, and together with partners, we deliver outcomes through four interwoven strands of activity - providing education services and facilities, building healthy relationships, promoting health and wellbeing, and improving employability skills.

Fresh Futures is entering an exciting new phase of service provision as we are currently co-creating a new service for young adults aged 18 - 26 living in Kirklees.

We have co-produced a young adults service with young adults aged 18 - 26 years old and living in Kirklees.

Our new service aims to build confidence and self-esteem, specifically amongst young adults who are unemployed.

We seek a highly motivated and empathetic individual to facilitate our drop-in sessions and oversee positive friendships between our young adult referrals and volunteers.

As our Young Adults Engagement Officer, we expect you to have a working knowledge of the current issues facing young adults and be passionate about empowering young adults’ voices in through every aspect of the service.
