Support doesn't always happen in a classroom.

Some young people feel more comfortable talking about their future in places that are familiar to them, whether that's in their local community, a youth setting or another environment where they feel at ease.

That's why Your Future Kernow works with young people where support is needed most, helping them explore their options, build confidence and plan their next steps in a way that works for them.

By taking a personalised approach, the team helps young people overcome barriers, recognise their strengths and make informed decisions about education, employment and training.

When young people feel comfortable, they're more likely to engage, open up and take positive steps towards their future.

Two young people. One year. A huge achievement.

A year ago, Dom Tlustochowicz and Aimee Hall joined Cornwall Council as Supported Interns. Since then, they have gained new skills, built their confidence and made a real difference in the teams they worked with.

Their journey did not stop there.

Dom and Aimee were selected as peer researchers for a supported employment study led by Plymouth University and the Health Determinants Research Collaboration. Out of just eight peer researchers involved across Plymouth, Medway and Lambeth, they proudly represented Cornwall.

To mark the end of the project, they travelled to London where they shared their experiences and spoke about what they had learned. For both young people, the trip was another important step towards greater confidence and independence.

Their story is a reminder that when we listen to young people, we create better opportunities and stronger services for the future.

As they take their next steps and apply for roles at Cornwall Council, we wish them every success.

Their achievements show what can happen when young people are given the chance to grow, contribute and be heard.
