Kick Start Scheme for young people from our member Andrew Waite.

 Kick Start Scheme for young people from our member Andrew Waite.

 Hi Jean-Francois,

 

Hope you are well…

This is Andrew a Gay Professional Network member for some years now.

 

My organisation is a “Gateway Intermediary” for the Government’s new kick Start Scheme to provide young people whose salaries are paid for 6 months at minimum wage.

Would it be possible to pass the information around to the gay business community please?

 

It seems such a great opportunity to keep businesses going and helping young people stay in work.

Anyone interested must have a business or charity.

 

If you or organisations you know wish to take part, you/they can register interest at:

Kind regards,

Andrew Waite
