Pop-up shop is just the job for local young people

YOUNG people looking for careers advice are invited to visit a new pop-up shop in Chelmlsey Wood town centre.
Staff from Solihull Council, Solihull College, the Prince’s Trust, Advanced Personnel Management and initiatives such as Fab Lab and Frame Academy will be on hand to offer advice to 15 to 29-year-olds.
The shop - which has set up at 11 Coppice Walk - will be open every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday (12noon-4pm) between now and the end of September.
Councillor Ken Meeson, cabinet member for children, education and skills, said: “This is a great opportunity for any young person who is looking for help to set them on a path to their future career to get some face to face advice and practical support to find a job or an apprenticeship.”
The initiative is part of the Birmingham & Solihull Youth Promise Plus project and is part-funded by the European Social Fund.
