Join our network of businesses changing the game for young people

What we're
trying to do.

Young people, especially those from disadvantaged or underrepresented backgrounds, are being left behind.

73%

of young people are still worried about how the economy and COVID-19 have affected their skills and future careers.

41.5%

Only 41.5% feel confident they have the skills to start employment

44.6%

Fewer than half (44.6%) believe they could write a strong CV, and just 46.9% know how to prepare for an interview.

56%

Over 56% see lack of work experience as their biggest barrier to employment.

We help bridge the gap between education and employment, connecting young people with forward-thinking businesses and CSR partners that can offer real-world opportunities, mentoring, and belief in their potential.

By joining forces with Unloc, companies become part of a growing corporate youth partnership network, helping to build confidence, develop employability skills, and create pathways into meaningful work through youth leadership and enterprise programmes.

These partnerships also engage employees in purposeful, social value initiatives that deliver measurable impact for both young people and business.

Together, we can change the statistics – and change the story for the next generation
