Boost Your Future
Boost Your Future is a targeted programme to support young people who are Not in Education, Employment, or Training (NEET) or at risk of becoming NEET. The project is being managed by the Bristol Post 16 Team.
Delivered over 6 or 12 weeks, the programme runs three days a week. Each cohort will have between 8-10 young people and will help participants explore future pathways through:

- Progression into positive destinations
Programme Aims
