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 to find the tools and confidence to try free courses and start careers.
The Trust has helped 1,000,000 young people to date and supports more and more each day.
More than three in four will start something amazing moving into jobs, education and training.
How we support young people
We are open to young people aged 11 to 30 from all over the UK - no matter if they have been facing some serious issues such as homelessness or if they've been in trouble with the law. If they're willing to aim high - we are here.
We have returned £1.4 billion in value to society through our help for young people over a period of just ten years.
We work with delivery partners across the UK to offer hundreds of free courses, grants and mentoring opportunities to inspire young people to build their confidence and start a career. We will be there to support them to achieve their full potential.
We listen to their issues and concerns to provide the best possible support.
Now in its fifth decade, The Prince’s Trust is expanding its operations from the United Kingdom to the global stage to tackle global youth unemployment.
Our strategy
Our UK 2021-2025 strategy lays out the direction of The Prince’s Trust. We plan to give more young people the opportunity to create a better future through employment, education and enterprise. We will help those facing the greatest adversity onto a pathway to employment, while strengthening our network of opportunity and support for young people to give them the best chance of success in years to come.
