The Next Chosen Generation CIC - Essex Community Foundation

Education, Training and Advice

The Next Chosen Generation CIC

The Next Chosen Generation CIC supports young people aged 8-25 who are predominantly from the BAME community in Basildon, however the workshops and support are open to all.

The organisations aim is to reduce poverty in young people by delivering early intervention services that prevent them from becoming Not in Education, Employment, or Training (NEET).

Our grant is supporting their running costs so they can deliver a number of projects, the variety and scope having changed and grown in response to the impact of COVID-19 and as their experience of the needs of young people increased.

These include career coaching workshops, one-on-one mentoring, digital training, work placements and employability skills.
