Young Futures Hubs: Eligibility

Asked by Anna DixonLabourDepartment for EducationTabled Answered 8 July 2025UIN 63808

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, if she will take steps to extend the Young Futures Programme to include young people up to the age of 25.

Answered by Janet Daby

Young Futures Hubs will build on the success of existing infrastructure and provision, with the government establishing a number of early adopter hubs, the locations of which will be determined by where they will have the most impact. The multi-year Spending Review set overall resource departmental budgets until 2028/29 and overall capital departmental budgets until 2029/30. Departments are now working to determine allocations and further details will be provided in due course.

Young Futures Hubs will be co-designed using local knowledge to best serve their communities and will serve a core age range of 10-18, but with flexibility to support young people at each end of this age range in line with local needs.
