I had a really interesting meeting at Youth Employment UK, based in Kettering, to hear more about the leading work they passionately do to see that young people can best access opportunities in the workplace and in education, helping to overcome disadvantage and equipping them with the skills they need to secure great careers and progress within them. It was particularly lovely to meet again with Laura-Jane Rawlings MBE from Corby, following her recent richly deserved recognition in the New Year Honours, to say a massive 'congratulations' in person, and for her taking the time to explain the brilliant work she and her team do on this agenda, both locally and nationally.
