Accelerate!

16-24 year old Sandwell residents who are not in education, employment and training (NEET) are invited to get involved with Accelerate.

Accelerate will support young people into employment or training by empowering them to develop life, social and employability skills, increase their confidence, and take part in a range of activities along the way.

Activities available include outdoor pursuits (wall climbing, hill walking, canoeing, geo caching) drama, music production, magic/circus skills and more.
There is no charge to take part, and lunch is provided on all days. Participants will also work with an Employment and Skills advisor towards achieving their employment goals.
