The initiative targeted care-experienced young people and those aged 18 to 25 who were unemployed and not in education or training.

The Medical Training (Prioritisation) Act received Royal Assent on Thursday, introducing measures intended to prioritise UK medical graduates for NHS training places.
The strategy aims to improve pathways for residents, strengthen talent pipelines and support skills development in priority sectors.

Edward Chambers, co-chairman at Lindum, said: “This project will play an important role in helping address dental workforce shortages across Lincolnshire.”

The event will take place at the Adelphi Hotel, Brownlow Hill, Liverpool, on 26th March 2026 from 4.30pm to 7pm.

The programme is part of the Ayrshire Growth Deal and supports employment in the electric vehicle and hydrogen automotive sector.

The council set out commitments to expand in-house apprenticeship and career development pathways and support local businesses to get involved.

Sessions will cover careers in areas such as engineering, technology, diagnostics, and practical routes into the aftermarket.

Through this partnership, Addison Lee will support more women into the profession through dedicated training and mentorship programmes.

Anna Spaul Castiglione, director of data innovation at ManpowerGroup, discusses the challenges and opportunities in addressing youth unemployment and the work-readiness gap in the UK.
The expanded support will incentivise founders in all regions, scaling businesses and young innovators.

Charlie Bentham-Wood said: “Our role is to help ensure students receive the support they need and reduce barriers they may face during their studies.”
