£1 million for young people to turn ideas into businesses

The Department for Business, Innovation and Skills is giving £1 million to youth charity The Prince's Trust to help young unemployed people turn their ideas into businesses.

In the next five months, 630 young people will take part in The Prince's Trust's new 'Be Enterprising' course. The charity expects that 270 young people will see their own business come to life through the course, with others moving in to other work, education and training.
