Somer Valley Skills Pathway Launches Supported Internship Programme for Young People with Additional Needs

Somer Valley Skills Pathway

Designed for individuals aged 16 to 24 who have an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) or other additional needs, the programme aims to bridge the gap between education and employment. Participants will gain hands-on experience in their local communities—including B&NES, Radstock, Frome, and the wider Somer Valley area—while developing essential skills such as CV writing, interview preparation, and workplace confidence.

The internship is set to begin in October, and places are expected to fill quickly.

This is a fantastic opportunity for young people who are ready to work but need a bit of extra support to get there. We’re here to help them build confidence, gain independence, and understand what employers are looking for.

Interested applicants or their families can get in touch by calling 0300 3327997 or emailing enquiries@sslcourses.co.uk for more information or to book a consultation.
