Nick Clegg in the North West promoting apprenticeships

Lib Dem Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg was in Salford this week and announced and extra £50 million for the Youth Contract - a scheme which helps employers to take on young people.

This is making a real difference, with 4,000 young people a month now starting work because of the scheme. That's 4,000 young people who are able to get on in life thanks to the Lib Dems being in Government.

But there are still thousands of young people out there who could benefit from an apprenticeship, and we need your help to make sure they know what's possible.
That's why we've produced information packs on apprenticeships for young people, parents and businesses.

For more information on apprenticeships then contact one of these websites:

For parents - http://www.amillionjobs.org/parents
For businesses - http://www.amillionjobs.org/businesses

Helping young people get on in life is an important part of creating a stronger
economy in a fairer society. With your help, we can make sure as many of them
as possible get the opportunities they deserve.
