Retail's next generation Breakfast Roundtable

In June, 80+ retail leaders told the Prime Minister that “the ladder of opportunity for young people is wobbling.”
‍

With youth unemployment at 16% and more than 1 million under-25s NEET, the pressure is growing. But retail already has more of the answer than it gets credit for.
‍

Join senior leaders across HR, Early Careers and Social Impact for an honest, practical conversation about what’s working, where the gaps remain and what retail can do next.
‍

We’ll explore:

• What approaches are helping young people move closer to employment?
• What barriers are still getting in the way?
• How can retailers share what works and create more opportunities at scale?
  ‍

Expect real experiences, real data and a genuine peer-to-peer conversation.
