Description:

Youth unemployment at the UK rose sharply after the economic crash and remains stubbornly high. There are fears this could be leading to another ‘lost generation’ of Britain’s youth.

Camden Council’s apprenticeship team are dedicated to helping young people into work. In Spring/Summer 2013 they ran an initiative called ‘Camden 100 in 100’. The idea was to create one-hundred apprenticeships in the borough in one-hundred days.

To find out more about the scheme, Camden Community Radio interviewed Rahima Khanum, an apprentice at the Wellcome Trust on Euston Road, and Brian Lim, her manager. We also spoke to Michael Pratt, from the council’s apprenticeship team, and councillor Valerie Leech.

Special thanks to Michael for all his help and to Rahima and Brian for giving up their time.
