Real support. No pressure. Your next step, your way

This project provides help and support for young people aged 16-24 who aren't working, in school, or training. It also supports those who might soon be in this situation.

Cornwall Council delivers this project. We work with community-based partners who help to build confidence, resilience, and skills. YEP, helps young people in Cornwall plan their futures. 

We offer tailored support for young people including those with:

  • Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) and
  • Social Emotional and Mental Health (SEMH)

Thank you for your interest in the Youth Engagement Project. 

We continue to accept YEP Referral forms. Although there is a short waiting list for support, we encourage you to complete the form. We will be in touch as soon as possible regarding the next steps.

Please get in touch if you have any questions – we’re always happy to help.
