    There are limited job and training opportunities available locally, and travelling elsewhere can be difficult or expensive. Childcare is also a major barrier for parents, particularly when training or work doesn't fit around school hours. There should be more flexible and affordable training available locally, including evening or online options.
    More support is also needed for people who have been out of work for a long time, parents returning to work, people with anxiety or additional support needs, and young people who may lack confidence or experience. Opportunities need to be accessible, not just available.

    • There should be face to face job centres and no online journals. Proper support to get people into work regardless of age. Practical volunteering roles linked to work and qualifications.

      • There are limited employment opportunities within Kilwinning, making it difficult for young people who don't have access to a car to access employment in local areas.
