Young face lifetime of unemployment - The Prince's Trust

The Prince's Trust is calling for urgent action from the government to tackle the problem of youth unemployment.

Latest figures from the Office for National Statistics show 115,000 18 to 24-year-olds have been unemployed for longer than two years.

The government says it has hugely increased the number of work experience placements and apprenticeships.
