About Construction Youth Trust
CYT is a charity helping young people by giving them access to training, education and employment opportunities in construction.
We support young people whose journey to work may be challenging due to barriers such as financial circumstances, lack of awareness of opportunities, low self-esteem, gender or ethnicity.
We inspire and support young people with a passion for construction through education, practical work experience and employment brokerage.
We work in partnership to deliver free courses that provide practical work experience as well as careers advice. Our partners include community groups, local authorities, training providers, educators, young offender institutions and key industry employers.
