Aim
To support disadvantaged young people into great, long-lasting employment by giving them vital employability skills.
ABOUT GET SET GIRLS 
Get Set Girls is a youth club catering for disadvantaged young people between the ages of 16 and 19. We provide them with training, skills, social activities and personal growth in a culturally appropriate environment so that when they go out into the adult world they will have:
- the skills and confidence to access employment,
- experience and knowledge essential for dealing with people effectively,
- learnt how to make informed choices regarding family and community,
- increased their awareness about their own personal development and about their ability to make their own choices,
- and be motivated to contribute positively to society.
We achieve this by developing annual programmes that include social activities, team building initiatives, lectures and workshops, volunteering programmes, trips and by providing a wide range of training and skills courses ranging from computer skills, childcare, numeracy and literacy to work skills, customer services and first aid which can lead to qualifications.
WE HAVE AN AMAZING IDEA!!
We want to give disadvantaged 16-19 year olds the fundamental career skills and qualities to ensure they access great and long-lasting employment that pays. We have therefore designed a series of 6 fun workshops including group work, displays, skits, reports and speeches, helping them learn:
1. Employment procedures, CV writing, interview skills, and how to identify suitable job opportunities
2. Interpersonal Skills Course covering communication skills, effective listening, and relating to superiors and colleagues in a work environment.
WE NEED YOUR HELP!!
By supporting this fantastic initiative, you will ensure that disadvantaged young people:
a. Are motivated to achieve employment, job security and a constructive future
b. Gain essential skills to empower them to enter employment
c. Achieve confidence, self-esteem and motivation.
d. Transition into successful employment
You can make it happen! You can make that difference between Future Financial Security or Disadvantage.
