We recently kicked off Kingdom’s Employability Programme in collaboration with Wigan Youth Zone.
We’re thrilled to offer meaningful work experience placements to young people in our community. This initiative is all about helping the next generation build confidence, gain real-world experience and take steps toward their future careers.
Our Colleague Centre is leading the charge, ensuring these young individuals get the tools, exposure and support they need to thrive. As a proud Founder Patron of Wigan Youth Zone, we’re committed to making a real, lasting impact.
To launch the programme, we welcomed the young people into our National Support & Command Centre for an introduction to Kingdom’s services and a meet-and-greet with our fantastic colleagues.
Over the coming months, they’ll be diving into placements across the organisation—learning, growing and gaining invaluable experience that will shape their futures. We can’t wait to see their journeys unfold!
Our Colleague Centre Advisor Lee Heaton said, “It was a pleasure welcoming the young people into our National Support & Command Centre. They brought great energy and it’s inspiring to see their enthusiasm to learn. This programme is a fantastic opportunity for them to gain insight into the working world, and we’re proud to be part of their journey.”
At Kingdom, our CARE values shape everything we do. We're united by a shared purpose and we CARE about supporting the communities we live and work in and creating better futures for the next generation. This programme is a perfect example of how we put our values into action, supporting young people as they take their first steps into the working world.
