Welcome to The Prince’s Trust
We believe that every young person should have the chance to embrace exciting opportunities. So, we help 11 to 30 year-olds who are unemployed or struggling at school to transform their lives.
Last year we empowered over 58,000 young people to turn their lives around.
More than three in four will achieve greatness, moving into jobs, education and training.
How we support young people
Many of the young people we help are in, or leaving, care, facing issues such as homelessness or mental health issues, or have been in trouble with the law.
We have returned £1.4 billion in value to society through our help for disadvantaged young people over the last 10 years alone.
Our free programmes give young people the practical and financial support they need to stabilise their lives. We help them develop key skills while boosting their confidence and motivation so they can continue to dream big.
#YouthCanDoIt

Soft skills are considered to be as important to achieving success in life as good grades.
