‘Sensible’ And The Benefits System Don’t Usually Go Hand-In-Hand. The resulting schemes of numerous Benefits Consultations and Reforms instigated by successive UK governments have created seemingly insurmountable problems in “making work pay”.

Helping young people to find the employment, education or training opportunities that are right for them by giving young people the opportunity to create their own solutions to employment problems through starting something themselves. We will facilitate this support through a smart phone application that helps with ideas generation before turning the idea into a viable income generating business. It’s clear that young people are the solution to their own problems and with support they have the potential to innovate and come up with the next big business or idea.

Lack of interest and motivation or/and lack of knowledge of how to achieve desired goals, are some of the most important reasons for unemployment and illiteracy. A personal tutor and motivator is exactly what young people need in such situations; to help them fix things up and get back to the track. Young people require personal tutors who are ready wherever they are, whenever they need some help.

"Wouldn't it be great if young people could find out about jobs or skill-building, mentoring & learning opportunities, entrepreneurship, and, say, rock-and-roll-camp for girls - through a single RSS feed? And what if the feed was customizable - so that said young people (or parents/guardians/mentors) could subscribe to an organization (that hosts such activities), a venue (near home, for example), or a specific firm where said young people might really, really want to work?"

What if we could give people who are very good at telling stories and communicating through visuals an understanding of how they could better work with public services & civil society and give policy makers new perspectives on how they present their policies and issues they cover and make them more engaging to the public?
