You will be aware that Manchester City Council is facing another round of massive cuts to its budget over the next two years, and that youth services in the city have already faced savage, disproportionate cuts since 2010-11, leaving funding for direct delivery at a mere 13% of what it was only 4 years ago.

Manchester Metropolitan University’s GradMatch provides funding for organisations to recruit 2014 graduates for 8-week internships.

This year’s GradMatch scheme enables graduates to gain paid work experience in a range of industries in the North West and will fund up to 100 paid internships. It provides organisations with £1,000 to put towards their intern’s salary, with organisations contributing an additional £1,000 to provide the graduate with National Minimum Wage for the full 8-week internship.
