The Department for Business, Innovation and Skills is giving £1 million to youth
charity The Prince’s Trust to help young unemployed people turn their ideas into
businesses.

 

In the next five months, 630 young people will take part in The Prince’s Trust’s
new ‘Be Enterprising’ course. The charity expects that 270 young people will see
their own business come to life through the course, with others moving in to other
work, education and training.
