New Deal for Young People is a mandatory programme of help designed to address the problems of long-term unemployment in 18-24 year olds. The aim of New Deal for Young People is to improve young people’s chances of finding and keeping a job.

Whilst on the programme, participants will receive the continued help and support from a New Deal Personal Adviser whose main aim is to meet your needs of finding and keeping a job, or becoming self-employed.  New Deal for Young People gives you a chance to re-look at your situation, take the skills and experience you may have already and build on them to create better opportunities for work.
