Last updated 11th Nov 2025
A major new Youth Hub has opened its doors at Peterborough United’s Weston Homes Stadium, aiming to give sixteen to twenty-four year olds extra support to find work, training or further education.
The centre, launched last week, brings together careers advice, job-matching, skills training and wellbeing guidance all under one roof.
This hub is about making sure no young person feels left behind
It’s designed to help young people take the next step towards their future, with a focus on making sure no one is left behind.
At the opening, Mayor of Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Paul Bristow said:
“We want every young person in Cambridgeshire and Peterborough to have access to the opportunities, support and confidence they need to succeed."
"This hub is about making sure no young person feels left behind - it’s about opening doors to jobs, training, and brighter futures.”
The new hub is a partnership between the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Combined Authority, Peterborough United Foundation, EFL in the Community, Jobcentre Plus and local youth groups.
Peterborough is leading the way with its new Youth Hub
Work and Pensions Secretary Pat McFadden also praised the project, saying:
“Peterborough is leading the way with its new Youth Hub, providing the wraparound support that helps young people build confidence and take the next step in their career."
"This is a great example of local and national government working together to deliver real change.”
The hub is open to anyone aged sixteen to twenty-four in the area who wants help or advice about jobs, training or wellbeing. Young people can drop in or get in touch to find out more.
Mayor Bristow added that he is committed to backing the hub, promising to step in with funding if needed to ensure that support for local young people continues.
