Why it matters
Social return that travels.
Each person who transitions from NEET (Not in Education, Employment or Training) into employment, delivers significant economic and social value - reducing benefit dependency and criminal justice costs, while increasing tax contribution.
Gearing2Grow generates social return that extends well beyond the programme itself.
