Brighton hosted the UK government’s first Youth Guarantee Jobs Fair on Tuesday 20 June, drawing more than 650 young people and over 50 employers and training providers. The fair took place at the Brighton Centre, where participants met companies such as Mace Construction, JD Sports and Gatwick Airport employers, and secured more than 200 job interviews and apprenticeship opportunities. The event was part of the Youth Guarantee scheme, backed by £2.5 billion to ensure every young person has the chance to earn or learn. Attendees received tailored advice on CVs, interviews, AI tools for job searching and the apprenticeship assessment process, while DWP desks offered support with childcare costs and live vacancies. The government said the fair demonstrated its commitment to creating opportunities for young people.
