Work

Upsurge JobHub — skills, mentoring and real routes into shadowing, internships, apprenticeships and jobs.

Wellbeing

Upsurge Wellbeing — activity, community and early signposting. Not a clinical or crisis service.

Home

Upsurge Home — spotting housing difficulties early and connecting young people with the right services.

Work. Wellbeing. Home.

One network built around all three

A job can change someone’s circumstances; a career can change their future. But it’s hard to keep either without wellbeing and a secure home.

  • Career mentoring, CV, interview and AI skills
  • Wellbeing workshops and peer support
  • Housing information and specialist referrals
Ages 16 – 35

Built for young people aged 16 to 35.
