Following our summer break I am delighted to invite you to our next Bondholder Breakfast which is being jointly hosted with the The Peterborough School.  

We have a great topic for the September's Breakfast, Empowering the Future - Youth Employment and Skills.  A topic which has been raised a number of times within the Annual Business Survey and in discussions at previous breakfasts. 

Tom Hennessy will provide his usual update on city news and at present we have the following presentations:

DWP will be presenting on there Movement to Work programme.  This programme is designed to help young people aged 18 to 24 who are not in education, employment or training (NEETs) move closer to employment by providing quality work experience and learning opportunities.
