The Construction Youth Trust (CYT) is a charity that the Worshipful Company of Builders’ Merchants (WCoBM) is proud to support through its charitable donations, and particularly the Maddie Rose Campaign, which was set up to shine a spotlight on the incredible career opportunities available in the construction sector in honour of Maddie Rose.
CYT has established nine ‘hubs’ across London and Kent, where it can focus its efforts in communities where there is a clear need to give young people access to career and training opportunities.
The Construction Youth Trust has now published its 2022 Impact Report, which outlines the work it carried out in the past year. Key successes achieved by the charity include:
- Reaching 21,061 young people
