Pathways is a creative employability programme that provides employment and personal development support to young people aged 16-35 across the Walsall and wider Black Country area.
The programme aims to help young people break down barriers that prevent them from progressing into meaningful employment and opportunities.
​
On Pathways, participants engage in 12 free, tailored, creative 1-to-1 sessions (1 hour per session) that will help them to progress further towards their goals and aspirations. Participants can also access further coaching support from FNB Mentoring & Coaching whilst with us.
