New Horizon Youth Centre was a finalist in the Community Partner’s 2011 Dragon Awards. Our partnership with Buzzacott Accountants focuses on giving young homeless people a real opportunity to secure employment in the corporate sector and readiness for work training. New Horizon also receives coaching in marketing skills from Buzzacott staff – helping to generate additional revenue for the Centre.

We welcome external organisations and agencies who would benefit our young people. On March 22nd, the accountancy firm Buzzacott ran a very successful workshop on interview techniques where fourteen young people gained valuable skills on presenting themselves at work, communication skills and body language. Young people said “it really benefitted me because I found out how to research companies properly”. Another young person said “the training was delivered very well and it was good to have new ideas”.
Young people from the centre have been involved from the outset in the development and design of our new building. This has culminated in young people securing apprenticeships and work placements on the new build site.
Fitsum (one of our young people) has been working on the electrical installation at the site. Thank you to JONAP (the contractors) for giving him this opportunity and well done to Fitsum for his hard work and commitment.
