Coca-Cola Europacific Partners is highlighting the important role youth work plays in creating opportunities for young people in Scotland
Every young person should have the opportunity to thrive – no matter their background or experiences. They’ve suffered more than most as a result of the pandemic, and in some cases, it’s knocked their confidence and made it more difficult for many to find routes into work.
And it’s not just young people who benefit. In its ‘Untapped’ report, national youth organisation, UK Youth, found youth work is already saving the government £3.2m a year through improved education and employment outcomes and positive impacts on mental health. It’s also contributing £5.7m annually to the wider economy through jobs, volunteering and local suppliers.
To find out more about the important impact youth work is having in Glasgow, Holly Firmin, senior community partnerships manager at CCEP GB, which manufactures Coca-Cola products from five sites across GB, spoke to Frank Denvir, distribution operations manager at Coca-Cola's East Kilbride manufacturing site, who coordinates its work with Achieve More! Scotland:
“I was fortunate enough to be invited to one of Achieve More! Scotland’s activity days, to see first-hand the work that goes on. The output was incredible – from happy, engaged young people, to passionate and driven youth workers supporting, encouraging and pushing them every step of the way.
