Employability is the word for the Community Foundation It is a very exciting time within the Foundation with the opportunity to deliver Traineeships and the new Government incentivised Kickstart programme. The traineeships are being delivered in three main areas: Groundsmanship, Hospitality/Customer Service and Stewarding. With people between the ages of 19-24 undertaking work placements, learning new skills and increasing their employment prospects. You may have seen one of our trainees tending to the pitch at our last home match against Exeter City.
Kickstart Programme Update Many of you may have heard of the Kickstart programme that is aimed at those who are between the ages of 16-24 years old, unemployed and at risk of long term unemployment. Harrogate Town AFC Community Foundation, through their partnership with the EFL Trust have managed to acquire 5x Kickstart places to undertake much needed tasks within the club and the charity. We are still recruiting roles in Media, Sports Coaching and Office Administration. Please email community@harrogatetownafc.com for more details. Henry Whitaker who has joined the club as Media Assistant through the Kickstart opportunity was in fact the first EFL Trust Kickstart placement in the country! Welcome Henry.
