In supporting the hospitality, leisure and tourism industries, The Springboard Charity aims to advance the life and education of those under the age of 25 through its provision of advice, training and skills courses. Working nationally across the UK and Ireland, our work is built around three key areas: employability training programmes, education programmes and careers resources and advice. Thus tackling ongoing problems that the named industries may face, including staff and skills shortages, as well as misrepresentation of what a fulfilling career these industries can offer.
