Speaking in the House of Lords on 24 July 2025

Debate

Young Futures Hubs

Contribution

My Lords, it is a tough old time for young people right now, not helped by the reduction in funding for youth services that we have seen over quite a few years. It is great to see the plethora of innovations coming through for them, but I worry that these hubs seek to be all things to all people, with the idea that they can help with mental issues, knife crime, drug issues, work skills and so on. As these hubs roll out, what assessments are planned to make them as successful and cost effective as possible?
