Over a million young people aged 16 to 24 are unemployed in the UK.
We believe that they can develop the skills for employment
through volunteering but at the moment, with very few jobs available,
they are left with nowhere to go. We're taking the age-old temp agency model.
We're modernizing it and bringing it into the digital world. That's where young people look
now for their opportunities.
Task Squad is a digital platform that matches employers to
enthusiastic volunteers that want to get into the job market through doing short paid tasks.
With the Global Impact Award, over the next three years, we could provide short-term,
paid, flexible work opportunities for around two hundred seventy thousand
young people, many of whom
this opportunity would be completely out of reach for.
