Youth Hub

Lewisham Youth Hub

• Are you a young person living in Lewisham, aged 18 -24?
• Are you looking for employment, training, apprenticeships, or education, or are thinking about your career options?

The Lewisham Youth Hub service can help.

A vital part of Lewisham’s Young Futures programme, the Youth Hub team are here to support you with your next step. This could be education, training, employment, apprenticeships or Kickstart – whatever it is we are here to help you make the right choice.

We offer Lewisham residents aged 18-24 a personalised one-to-one specialist information, advice and guidance service providing access to training, job and other development opportunities.

We also publish a weekly Jobs and Opportunities Bulletin email with a range of local opportunities available.

How does it work?

• Step 1 – sign up on our registration form below (takes less than a minute)
• Step 2 – you will be signed up to our weekly Jobs and Opportunities Bulletin (by email)
• Step 3 – we will get in touch with you and arrange a one-on-one conversation with one of our Employment and Training Advisors. They get to know you, your goals, aspirations and current situation. They will then work with you to understand what support you may need, develop a plan of action, and help identify suitable opportunities.
• Step 4-What happens next depends on what you decide your goals are and what you want support with! This could include helping with your CV, help with applications, tailored search for opportunities, working closely with employers to help you make links with them through our Jobs Broker, and introduction to referral relevant organisations that best meet your needs.
• Step 5 - Ongoing support when you have found a opportunity.

Where can we support you?

This depends on what suits you best. Services can be delivered virtually, but we will also be able to meet in person at one of a few locations in the borough.

• Unit 19 – Lewisham Shopping Centre (opposite Greggs) OPENING SOON
• Old Town Hall or Lawrence House – Catford
• Youth Club – Lewisham Islamic Centre – (first Thursday of the month drop-in 2pm-5pm)
• Some of our partners will also host drop-in sessions where we will be present.
