Amplifying Young Voices in Employment – Regional Round table

This regional roundtable will bring together employers, VCSE partners, policymakers and youth representatives to explore the barriers young people face when entering employment and what can be done differently.

The session will centre young people’s lived experience, drawing on research gathered and presented by Peer Ambassadors. Their insights will help shape discussion, challenge assumptions, and inform more inclusive employment practice and policy across the North East.

This is a collaborative, discussion-led space designed to support shared learning and practical action.

• Insights from Peer Ambassador–led research
• Honest conversation grounded in lived experience
• Cross-sector discussion with employers, VCSE leaders and decision-makers
• Opportunities to contribute to shaping fairer pathways into work

This event is suited to:

• Employers and business leaders
• VCSE organisations supporting young people
• Policymakers and system leaders
• Youth advocates and representatives

Places are limited to ensure a balanced and meaningful discussion.
