Our mission

Construction Youth Trust’s mission is to inspire and enable young people to overcome barriers and achieve their full career potential. We do this by connecting young people with employers and opportunities in the construction and built environment sector. Social mobility is at the heart of our work, and we prioritise working with young people from low-income backgrounds, underrepresented groups and/or those who are facing significant barriers to employment.

We help young people to recognise their potential, develop their confidence and skills and discover opportunities never previously presented to them.

  • “Through our long-standing partnerships with employers, we connect young people to relatable role models, world-of-work experiences and, ultimately, meaningful employment, education and training.”
    Carol Lynch, CEO
  • Our vision

    Our vision is a construction and built environment sector that drives social mobility and delivers social value by inspiring and enabling the diverse young talents of 21st century Britain to overcome barriers and build better futures.
