Careers & Enterprise Hub
The Careers & Enterprise is built to help young people prepare for the future, whether they want to explore their options in further education or training, find a career that suits their skills and personality, or set up their own business!
Our Careers & Enterprise provision started in 2017 with the highly successful Smart Futures project. Smart Futures lasted for 3 years and supported over 3000 young people in North Manchester with raising their aspirations and providing them with accessible, high-quality careers guidance and work experience.

The Training Kitchen is available for all of our Members on our Junior and Senior Sessions! The cooking sessions will teach young people how to prepare and cook healthy, nutritious hot meals and desserts.
Young people will learn about the nutritional value of foods, and how to be hygienic when handling and preparing meals in the kitchen.
The Maker Space Workshop is a free space for young people to learn about crafting, engineering and creating new things! It features a 3D Printer and a Vinyl Printer, which some of our Members have used to launch their own businesses.
