With a committed, enthusiastic team, and our extensive relationships with schools and local businesses, we’re helping the community of Tower Hamlets work together to give every child a promising future. At The Switch, we’re a committed team with a passion for working with young people. By partnering with businesses, we work with primary and secondary schools to introduce young people to all things related to work. From one-off workshops to ongoing programmes, there’s a programme to fit your needs. Whether that’s developing skills or navigating the recruitment processes, understanding the job market or work experiences. All programmes bring volunteers from local employers into contact with young people.
