The Llwyddo’n Lleol 2050 project, led by Menter M\u00f4n, has announced an exciting opportunity for businesses and young people in Gwynedd and Ynys M\u00f4n to be part of their Elfen Gyrfaol (Careers Element).<\/div>\n

This element offers young people aged 18-35 the opportunity to gain valuable work experience with local employers, whilst supporting businesses to develop the workforce and invest in local talent.<\/div>\n

Through this opportunity, businesses will be able to offer flexible work placements to young people, with financial support and practical support from the Llwyddo’n Lleol team. Participants will also benefit from a range of development activities, including skills sessions and networking opportunities, to ensure a complete and valuable experience.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
As well as the work experience itself, participants will have access to a wider package of support, including workshops to develop skills and confidence, and social activities to build connections and network locally.<\/div>\n

The new element aims to show that young people can build successful careers in their native areas, whilst supporting businesses to grow and thrive by retaining talent locally.<\/div>\n
This element contributes to local partners’ priorities to strengthen opportunities for young people, raise awareness of local careers and support the aim of retaining talent in Ynys M\u00f4n and Gwynedd.<\/div>\n

LLWYDDO\u2019N LLEOL 2050\u2019S BACKGROUND<\/b>
\nLlwyddo’n Lleol 2050 is a project led by Menter M\u00f4n, with the aim of supporting young people to build a strong life, career and social network in their local communities.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
With challenges such as the emigration of young people affecting Welsh speaking communities, the project aims to show that a bright future and a successful career can be achieved locally.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
In Gwynedd, this work supports the priorities of Cyngor Gwynedd’s N\u00f4l i Wynedd strategy, and on Ynys M\u00f4n it aligns with the priorities of the Council’s Plan 2023 to 2028 and initiatives such as Dyfodol M\u00f4n, which promotes opportunities for people to live, work and develop careers locally.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The project is funded by Nuclear Restoration Services (NRS) on behalf of the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority (NDA) and is supported by Cyngor Sir Ynys M\u00f4n, Cyngor Gwynedd and the ARFOR Programme which is looking to use enterprise and economic development to support the strongholds of the Welsh language, thereby sustaining the language.<\/div>\n
