A Blackpool scheme is helping young people take their next steps into work, training or education.
The Platform offers free one-to-one support for 16 to 24-year-olds, including career guidance, CV help, college advice and wellbeing support.
Since its launch, it has created more than a thousand opportunities in partnership with local organisations.
Councillor Kath Benson, Cabinet Member for Young People and Aspiration at Blackpool Council, said: “The Platform is an excellent service for anyone aged 16 to 24 in Blackpool who needs support in deciding their next steps.
“Whether you are looking for work, training, or simply need some guidance, this service offers personalised, one-to-one help that can make a real difference.
“For those leaving school or college, we know this can be an exciting yet uncertain time. The Platform is here to help you navigate your options, explore opportunities and feel confident about the path ahead.
“By working with trusted local organisations, The Platform is opening doors and helping to create bright futures for Blackpool’s young people.”
