Local London secures £500,000 to support young people at risk of becoming NEET
Local London is set to deliver a major new Youth Trailblazer programme to support young people at risk of becoming NEET (Not in Education, Employment or Training), after being awarded £500,000 through the Greater London Authority.
With national NEET levels still close to one million and over 125,000 young people in London, the programme will actively engage with at-risk students to give them the help they need to progress confidently into post‑16 learning, employment or training, and a further 3-6 months support once they are there.
Running until March 2027, Local London will work with around 300 Year 11 learners from selected schools, including mainstream settings, alternative provision and PRUs. Part of the pan‑London Youth Trailblazer initiative, the programme will focus on improving young people’s transitions into post‑16 pathways and reducing NEET levels.
Working with school leaders and multi‑agency partners, Local London will work with students who have low attendance in school, faced exclusions, have SEND needs, mental health challenges and socio‑economic pressures and will provide tailored support including parental engagement, mentoring, and guidance on post‑16 pathways, including further education and apprenticeships.
Cllr Morgon, Chair of Local London’s Skills and Employment Board and Leader of Havering said “Young people who become NEET often face long‑lasting impacts on their future life chances. Research shows that they are significantly more likely to experience unemployment, lower earnings, poorer physical and mental health, and long‑term economic disadvantage well into adulthood. Through this programme we have an opportunity to step in and reduce the risks that lead to long‑term disengagement. This is about giving London’s most at-risk Year 11s the support they need to move confidently into education, employment or training and set them up for a brighter future.”
Funded through the Department of Work and Pensions and Greater London Authority, the pilot contributes to the Government’s ‘Get Britain Working’ strategy and supports London’s Inclusive Talent Strategy and London Growth Plan which aim to help Londoners find the right training and career path for them.
The latest Labour Force Survey (LFS) data show that around 125,950 young people aged 16–24 in London were not in education, employment or training (NEET) between October and December 2025 (Q4).

Local London launches landmark Investment Prospectus for the sub-region
Local London has today unveiled its first Investment Prospectus showcasing multi-million-pound market ready opportunities in the fastest growing part of London.
The prospectus, produced by White Hawk Green, highlights the extraordinary breadth and scale of regeneration and housing projects emerging across its nine east London boroughs north and south of the river.
The launch took place at Local London’s second Investment and Development Forum, where developers, investors and local leaders gathered to explore a pipeline of transformative schemes across north and south‑east London.
A world class hub for growth and long-term investment
East London has long been a driver of London and the UK’s growth, and its development potential is unparalleled. The prospectus outlines a diverse range of investable propositions valued from £30 million to more than £960 million, offering opportunities for investors from multinational corporates to private equity, infrastructure funds and public sector partnerships.
With 40% of London’s brownfield land and 55% of the capital’s developable space, Local London represents one of the most strategically important geographies for the UK’s long-term economic success.
Connected to global markets and national growth corridors, the sub-region has the capacity to deliver more than 145,000 new homes and new employment districts and has been earmarked for two New Towns. These opportunities, alongside major regeneration areas, show the sheer scale of potential available to investors ready to engage in shaping the capital’s next era of growth.
Sub-region with a track record of regeneration success
The sub-region already boasts some of London’s most celebrated regeneration success stories. Developments such as Barking Riverside, The Quarry in Erith, Lorimer Village in Goodmayes, Blackhorse Lane in Waltham Forest, the Royal Docks, and the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park demonstrate East London’s ability to turn post-industrial landscapes into thriving residential, cultural and commercial destinations.
Building on this momentum, the Investment Prospectus brings together some of borough’s best sites and opportunities, signalling to developers and investors across the world that East London is entering a new phase of ambition.
Boasting international connectivity, a skilled and diverse workforce and vast development potential, the sub‑region offers:
- Scale and flexibility for mixed-use, residential and commercial investment.
- Strong local leadership committed to long-term partnerships.
- High growth potential, driven by population expansion and economic diversification.
- Strategic alignment with the UK’s national priorities, including green energy, net zero, innovation and housing delivery.
Cllr Okereke, Chair of Local London Leader of Greenwich said “Our boroughs are already transformational success stories, and our future is even brighter. With capacity for more than 145,000 homes and two new towns, fast-growing job sectors and the fastest growing population in the capital, we are motivated to attract investment to help our communities thrive.
The scale, diversity and pace of development possible here make our sub-region one of the most compelling investment opportunities anywhere for developers and investors of many types. This joint prospectus demonstrates the political will and market-ready opportunities, that will deliver our ambition for sustainable, inclusive growth.”
Cllr Kam Rai, keynote speaker at the event and Leader of Redbridge which hosts Local London said “I am delighted to share the first Investment Prospectus for the sub-region. As investors at our Development Forum will know, this sub-region has many brilliant residential, low carbon, commercial and public realm opportunities and strategic sites across our nine member boroughs. We are ready to engage with investors and developers to see this unmatched potential fulfilled.”
Mayor Fiaz OBE, Chair of the Local London Growth Board and Mayor of Newham said "The Local London sub-region is entering a new era of ambition. This joint investment prospectus removes the barriers for developers, showcasing a multi-billion-pound pipeline of market-ready opportunities that are perfectly aligned with the London Growth Plan and the London Infrastructure Framework. In Newham, this directly fuels our own Local Growth Plan, where we are leveraging our unique position to deliver the homes, high-quality jobs, and green innovation the UK needs in our drive for growth, jobs and opportunities for local people. We are open for business, strategically integrated, and ready to deliver at scale.”
Local London will be engaging with investors at UKREiiF and London Real Estate Forum in 2026, as well as through their series of Development Fora and regional events.

Deputy Mayor for Business marks new phase of Connect To Work
Howard Dawber, Deputy Mayor for Business, visited the London Borough of Redbridge on Wednesday 25 February to discuss the borough’s economic growth priorities and mark the official launch of a new Connect To Work partnership.
From April 2026, ‘Connect To Work’– a supported employment programme launched as part of the Government’s Get Britain Working strategy – will be funded through sub-regional partnerships via the GLA.
During his visit, Howard Dawber met with the Leader and the Chief Executive of Redbridge Council, which hosts and is a member of the Local London sub-regional partnership, to welcome the next phase of the Connect To Work programme.
The programme is expected to make a significant impact on the lives of people far from the job market. Through the GLA, the Local London sub-region will receive £36.1m to help in excess of 9,000 people across its nine boroughs over four years through Connect To Work.
The Connect To Work partnership between the GLA, Local London and its nine member boroughs, will use a tried and tested funding model that has already changed the lives of Londoners across its four sub-regional partnerships through initiatives including ‘No Wrong Door’, Trailblazers and Careers Hubs.
A pillar of inclusive growth, Connect To Work is successfully working with businesses and supporting residents with long-term health conditions, disabilities or complex barriers into good jobs and supporting those already in employment to stay in work.
Rounding out his tour of Ilford, the Deputy Mayor, took the time to speak with local businesses and residents who were excited to share how they have benefited from GLA-funded programmes.
Howard Dawber OBE, Deputy Mayor for Business and Growth, said “Driving growth and boosting the capital’s economy is our top priority. Our London Growth Plan, launched a year ago, is already making significant progress in supporting high streets and businesses, developing infrastructure and ensuring Londoners have the skills employers need to compete in a global workforce.
“It was great to see the vital work being in done in Redbridge to support local people with the skills and jobs they need to succeed, as we build a better, more prosperous London for everyone.”
Cllr Kam Rai, Leader of the London Borough of Redbridge, said “We were delighted to welcome Howard Dawber, Deputy Mayor for Business today and discuss Redbridge’s economic growth strategy and our role in sub-regional and London-wide prosperity. Redbridge is a diverse, fast‑growing and highly skilled borough, and we were proud to showcase some of our fantastic local businesses and the employment support available to residents. We look forward to deepening our partnership with the GLA and Local London to ensure even more people can thrive.”
Forogh Rahmani, Director of Local London, said “Connect To Work is part of our sub-region’s vision for boosting work and skills in this part of London, and it is already making a significant impact on the lives of people in our nine London boroughs. I am thrilled that Deputy Mayor Dawber was able to hear from businesses and residents in our host borough about a number of programmes that are driving inclusive economic growth. We are committed to working with the GLA and our boroughs to help local people find and stay in good work.”
Connect to Work is one of the programmes offered by Work Redbridge to help businesses recruit talent and help local people find jobs.
