Fairbridge Training is the external training division of leading youth charity Fairbridge. In January 2005, Fairbridge was awarded a National Voluntary Youth Organisation Grant from the then Department of Education and Skills. The main purpose of this grant was to develop a national training unit to provide training to voluntary youth sector professionals working with disengaged young people. Since then Fairbridge Training has grown and developed further training for anyone working with young people – in schools, statutory youth services and voluntary organisations.
