Careers, Information Advice and Guidance (CIAG)
” There’s no such thing as a career path, it’s crazy paving and you lay it yourself”
Sir Dominic Cadbury
There can be a lot of pressure on young people to have a long-term goal and know what they want to do in life. We want young people in and leaving care to have a good understanding of all the options open to them and be supported in developing their strengths and skills.
We can offer careers advice, guidance and support through:
- 1:1 sessions,
- Group work,
- Certificates,
- Workplace skills,
- Links to other Carefree activities and Local Offers

Current Projects
YEP!
The Youth Engagement Project for Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly supports Young People to take their next steps towards employment, education or training.
This project can provide one to one support to young people who are not in education, employment or training. The programme will help build confidence, resilience and competence and help care experienced young people to have a good life.
People Hub
The People Hub Project is designed to increase employment opportunities and skills for those over the age of 16, living in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly.
As part of this project we offer one to one support for young people. We also run group sessions which support young people on the project to build employability skills which will support them on their journey into employment.
