To help you with education and training and where there is no other way for you to get funding. Or, maybe to add to other funding if you need more. We know that some of you may have missed out on education and opportunities for all sorts of different reasons, and we think we might be able to help to support you and to help to give you a fresh start if that is what you want. We want to try to help you to improve your chances of becoming employed.
