Backing Young Britain is the Government’s campaign to bring organisations from the private, public and voluntary sectors together to create new opportunities for young people. The campaign can help employers offer an apprenticeship, give a young person a job and provide work experience.

A roadshow will arrive in Leicester on Monday 8th March 2010. An employer breakfast meeting will take place between 7.45am – 9am at the Cinema Delux, High Cross Shopping Centre. Young people will also have a chance to meet employers and find out about potential opportunities at a careers advice centre between 10am – 2pm, also at the High Cross Shopping Centre.
