Key Information

Launch Pad has now completed its delivery and will no longer be accepting referrals.

CXK is proud to have worked in partnership with the Prince’s Trust and Employer and Skills Network to deliver Launch Pad; a programme offering free support to help 18-28 year olds find work or training.

The project provided free support to anyone who:

lives in Medway or Swale
