WORKINGRITE, a youth employment charity, has seen a significant success rate in Mid and North Argyll, putting local 16-19-year-olds on the path to employment and modern apprenticeships – and giving businesses a welcome boost.
Since 2010, WorkingRite has successfully supported more than 1,500 young people. Allan Cameron, 17, a trainee at Kevan Brown Ltd, said: ‘I am glad I joined the WorkingRite programme as it has let me gain first-hand experience in a trade that I want to work in.’

They are supported by an adult mentor in the workplace, as well as their local WorkingRite project co-ordinator.
