We're back'“ and on the lookout in Bognor Regis

The Prince's Trust local organisers have settled into their new offices in the High Street ready for their next programme of changing the outlook of young people.

The trust organises 12-week full-time courses for 16 to 25 year olds who are looking to move on with their lives.

Project co-ordinator Roy Newnham said: "Typically, the learners are low on confidence and self-esteem. They have no or low qualifications, have been unemployed for some time and may be on probation or in sheltered housing.

"They often have a history of being bullied and, occasionally, abused.

"What they all have in common is they are looking for someone to give them an opportunity."

The next course starts on May 27. It is free and has no effect on any benefit claims.

A City and Guilds certificate in personal, teamwork and community skills awaits those who complete it, plus a certificate of voluntary hours, basic first aid and food hygiene.

Applicants should contact Mr Newnham on 07771 575776.
