‘Go Gwyrdd’ Green Careers Project

Connecting green employers with young jobseekers with disabilities and additional needs. Five teenagers standing together outside smiling

We work with young people aged 16-30 who are interested in green jobs and careers, and with employers who want to create a more inclusive, diverse and sustainable workforce.

Whether you’re looking for support to take your next step into employment or you’re an employer interested in offering opportunities, Go Gwyrdd can help.

The project runs until 2030 and is delivered by partners across North Wales, connecting people, communities and employers with opportunities that benefit both the economy and the environment. The project is funded through the Dormant Assets Fund, delivered by The National Lottery Community Fund.
