Future Builders
Future Builders
Our Future Builders programme, delivered in partnership with OVO Foundation, is a live-in apprenticeship scheme that aims to break the cycle of homelessness for young people.
We work with homeless young people who are not in education, employment or training and:
- Provide them with the necessary training to access a construction apprenticeship and the opportunity to refurbish a property that will become their home
- Provide an affordable and secure place to live whilst completing the apprenticeship
- Offer them wraparound support to sustain wellbeing
- Help them find a job and get their own place when they’ve finished the scheme
Future Builders has been designed to:
- Address the lack of appropriate move-on options for young people who are at the end of the homelessness pathway
- Support young people’s transition from supported housing to independent living and secure employment
- Give young people the necessary training to access full-time, sustainable employment at the end of their apprenticeship in order to avoid the cycle of repeat homelessness and address the construction skills gap
