About
We help young people in Swindon to gain workplace skills in an experiential environment, helping them create a sustainable future.
The Platform Project is an innovative non-profit organisation based in Swindon, that helps disadvantaged and vulnerable young people develop the skills, confidence and experience they need to launch their career and take sustainable steps towards a thriving future. We work closely with local authorities, education institutions and local employers to bridge the gap between education and employment so that young people can overcome challenges and become work ready, capable, and confident entry level talent.
We support schools and educational institutions to develop students by offering experience-based projects that engage them in their next step options.
We run youth enterprise support and employability coaching programmes, which feature advice, guidance, and hands-on, project-based experiences in a ‘training workplace’ to equip young people for work.
We offer a 1:1 therapeutic mentoring service to support young people with social, emotional and mental health needs (SEMH) by building a relationship with one of our specialist mentors who are also trained and qualified therapists.
