YMCA Derbyshire seeks companies for work experience placements

YMCA Derbyshire is calling on local companies to support participants of its Thriving Futures Trade Skills Bootcamp by offering meaningful two-to-four-week work experience placements.

Thriving Futures is an employability program that equips individuals with essential skills through 1:1 coaching, group sessions, and supported work placements. Participants develop vocational skills, gain practical experience, and prepare for the workforce with ongoing support from the YMCA Derbyshire team.

Throughout the placement, participants receive continuous support from the Thriving Futures Placement Officer, ensuring a positive experience for both participants and host companies.

“This is a fantastic opportunity for trade companies to invest in the future workforce while benefiting from the enthusiasm and fresh perspectives our participants bring,” said Becky Malley-Smith, Thriving Futures Placement Officer at YMCA Derbyshire. “We are excited to collaborate with local businesses to help these individuals gain the practical experience they need to succeed in the trade industry.”

Companies interested in offering a work experience placement, or finding out more, can contact the Thriving Futures Placement Officer Beckey Malley-Smith at, becky.malley-smith@ymcaderbyshire.org.uk or call 07512 309732.
