Brilliant to announce both Michael Gove and Angela Rayner will be joining us in Leeds for Convention of North next week.

In a pivotal election year, it’s vital that all political parties listen to the ambitions of Northern leaders and set out their visions for levelling up.

"This is made worse by a worrying trend of more 18–24-year-olds remaining without a job for over six months. The continued increases in unemployment (+2.5%), economic inactivity & the significant drop in employment for young people not in full-time education, are urgent problems.

[Youth Futures Foundation @YF_Foundation]

Our CEO, @BarryF_Connect, responds to the latest @ONS job stats:

“As vacancies fall and the cost-of-living crisis bites, rising unemployment is once again hitting young people from marginalised backgrounds hardest.

[Helen Knox @lebowski2020]

Really disappointed with the @HSBC_UK #mortgage service, they seem to be in complete disarray.

It’s taken six weeks, and counting, to complete a simple task. And they still keep moving the goal posts. #badservice

[Youth Futures Foundation @YF_Foundation]
