Opening Doors: Launching Our 2026 Supported Internships Call

At Groundwork Yorkshire, we believe that no-one should be held back by their background or circumstances. That is why we are proud to launch our call for supported internships for 2026, creating hands-on pathways for young people to gain confidence, learn practical skills, and step into meaningful work.

Why Supported Internships Matter

The transition from education to employment can feel daunting, particularly for young people facing barriers or additional challenges. Our supported internships provide a structured, nurturing environment where participants work alongside experienced mentors, develop professional capabilities, and build the self-belief needed to thrive.

We take a practical approach to building individual resilience. By combining hands-on workplace experience with tailored support, we help participants discover their strengths, gain valuable qualifications, and connect with local opportunities that shape a fairer, greener future.

What Participants Can Expect

Each internship is designed around the individual, focusing on real-world learning and personal growth. Participants will:

Gain hands-on work experience within supportive local environments.
Develop essential employability skills and workplace confidence.
Receive dedicated mentoring and guidance throughout their journey.
Take practical steps toward long-term employment in thriving sectors, including the green economy.

Take the Next Step

If you are a young person looking to build your future, or if you support someone who could benefit from this programme, we want to hear from you.
