Welcome to Skills Launchpad Plymouth
We're connecting local businesses and people with opportunities for skills, training, education, careers and jobs

Skills Launchpad Plymouth offers free, tailored support for:

  • young people aged 16–24, including those with additional needs, through the Youth Hub

  • adults aged 25+ seeking work, facing redundancy, or changing careers via the Adult Hub.

​​

The service puts individuals first, recognising that one size doesn’t fit all. In response to the cost of living pressures, it provides an ethical and inclusive space to help residents make informed choices about skills, training, and employment.

Based at Barclays Plymouth (140–146 Armada Way), Skills Launchpad Plymouth offers bookable face-to-face appointments and a weekly programme of activities for both young people and adults.

​​​​

​​​

In addition to supporting individuals, the Employer Hub helps local businesses—especially SMEs—navigate recruitment, skills, and workforce training challenges. It offers practical advice, guidance, and access to local solutions tailored to employers of all sizes.

What our members say:

"You gave me hope and such a confidence boost and I was able to go into this interview knowing I could do it because of the advice you gave me and kindness you showed me."
