Boost for young learners in Wolverhampton
A Black Country-based company has been awarded funds to help young people into work.
Black Country Impact fund has awarded the training provider two grants to support young people in Wolverhampton and help them find work.
The funding of £30,000, which has been awarded to Bespoke Training Ltd, is being provided so that young adults can boost their career in the fitness industry, training to be instructors or personal trainers.
Graham Coffey, of Bespoke Training Ltd, said: "My company has been awarded two grants from the fund.
"The aim of the grants is to help young people, aged 16 to 29-years of age who are unemployed, not in education or training to gain qualifications as gym instructors or personal trainers.
"We want to highlight this great opportunity to help people retrain and gain employment."
