DYW Ayrshire was established in October 2015 and is hosted by Ayrshire Chamber of Commerce. The group is chaired by David Smith, Managing Director of Ashleigh (Scotland) Ltd. With a dedicated employer engagement and communication resource, our mission is to encourage and support employers to engage directly with education, whilst encouraging them to recruit more young people. The focus going forward is to strengthen partnerships across Ayrshire to sustain and build on this progress ensuring we are improving the work readiness of Ayrshire’s young people.
We work in partnership with The Princes Trust & Ayrshire College to deliver innovative projects that develop skills for work and employability skills in our young people. The projects can support young people who are currently disengaged or at risk of disengaging from learning and provide a catalyst to re-engage. |
