Hi there,
As you may have seen in the news this morning, Alan Milburn has today published his Young People and Work interim report. He warns that Britain is “at risk of a lost generation” unless urgent action is taken to tackle the growing number of young people not in education, employment or training. The review looks at everything from the reduction in entry-level jobs and apprenticeships to barriers within welfare, education and mental health support — and argues that the current system is failing to help young people build stable adult lives.
We know this is a subject of huge concern to lots of Mumsnetters, and we’re pleased to announce that next week Alan will be sitting down with Justine to answer your questions.
If there’s something you’d like to ask him, then please do post it below. As ever, one question per user please, and keep it civil. We’ll be tight on time, so short, focused questions will help us get through as many as possible. And watch this space to hear the answers!
Thanks,
MNHQ
