Argyle Community Trust Youth Hub, working in partnership with the Department for Work and Pensions, is committed to helping young people aged 16–24 build confidence, gain skills, and move towards positive futures in education, training, apprenticeships, and employment.
Delivered from The Hub at Foulston Park, our dedicated Youth Hub Coordinator, working alongside Jobcentre Youth Hub Work Coaches, provides free, personalised support tailored to each young person’s goals and circumstances.
We support Universal Credit customers, aged 16-24, who are NEET (Not in Education, Employment or Training), and not currently engaged on another Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) funded programme, making them eligible for tailored Youth Hub support.
This Youth Hub specifically for PL1, PL2 and PL5 postcode areas.
We understand that everyone’s journey is different, which is why we provide practical guidance, wellbeing support, and opportunities to help young people progress at a pace that feels right for them.

Need support with English or maths? Join our Functional Skills sessions every Thursday, 11am – 1pm.
We are supporting young people gain their Functional Skills in Maths or English at either Level 1 or 2. Part of the support is weekly group sessions where young people can complete their learning on an online platform with 1:1 support from a key worker.
