Third Sector Online, 3 August 2009

Fourteen-year-old Kobi Miller, pictured here with youth worker Randy Ashie, has won a competition organised by social exclusion charity City Gateway to design a pair of shoes.

See first hand what the team from Moorhouse Consulting got up to when they took on a 48 hour team challenge at our Women's Project and Youth Centre:

Kobi Miller, 14, won the dream opportunity to have a pair of shoes he designed made up in real life having entered a competition at his local youth club. City Gateway’s Limehouse Youth Club ran the competition to encourage young people to creatively think about how they’d like to change and develop their own lives. The competition was run by the charity's sports and events social enterprise Gateway Motion which runs a range of activity days for young people, families and corporate clients.

'It's scary, I can tell you'

Young people have been particularly badly hit by the recession, with nearly 1 million of them not in education, employment or training. Louise Tickle talks to the 'Neets'

As the recession bites, young people fresh out of education seem to be among its biggest victims. Nearly 1 million 16- to 24-year-olds now find themselves not in education, employment or training - the so-called Neets.

City Gateway’s work, in partnership with other organisations, has seen NEET (young people not in education, employment or training) figures in Tower Hamlets fall from 15% to 6.7% in the past two years.

The New Statesman reports that of the 250 young people removed from the Borough NEET register in 2007, City Gateway had worked with 220 of them.
