It is aimed at those aged 16 to 24 who are on Universal Credit and are deemed to be at risk of long term unemployment.<\/p>\n<p>Suffolk Chamber of Commerce teamed up with Suffolk County Council, the county\u2019s FE colleges, New Anglia LEP and the borough and district councils to form the Suffolk Gateway Partnership (SGP) to support local organisations wanting to apply to this landmark Government scheme.<\/p>\n<p>Since then, over 640 placements have been approved through the SGP for funding, of which 127 have a young person in place, with dozens more in the pipeline.<\/p>\n<p>Muhammod Miah started his placement with Suffolk Chamber in June, being based mainly in the business organisation\u2019s Ipswich offices and actually working within the Kickstart team.<\/p>\n<p>According to Muhammod:\u00a0<em>\u201cAs a Kickstarter, I have already experienced many benefits from the Scheme, and my employability has improved as a result. I have gained crucial work experience and knowledge, as well as an understanding of the work environment, which I would have otherwise never have received.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cI am immensely grateful to Suffolk Chamber of Commerce, as they have provided me with an opportunity to progress my career and develop myself both personally and professionally.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Emma Alderton, Suffolk Chamber\u2019s Kickstart coordinator and Muhammod\u2019s supervisor, added:\u00a0<em>\u201cMuhammod has already been a great asset to the team since starting with us.
