Thurrock Council is moving towards a new community leadership approach which involves linking with local partners and communities as we shape our improvement for the years ahead. Thurrock is located on the north bank of the river Thames. Our urban centres are a vibrant mix of established towns and new young communities, with a diverse and growing population of around 160,000 residents. We are an emerging cultural and arts centre, home to the production centre for the Royal Opera House and the National Skills Academy for Creative and Cultural Skills. We have excellent retail and leisure opportunities, including Lakeside Shopping Centre, country parks, forests and marshes. Thurrock is just half an hour journey away from the centre of London by train and well connected by road.

The Prince’s Trust believes that every young person should have the chance to succeed. We help young people aged 11-30 develop the confidence and skills to live, learn and earn. The youth charity was founded by His Majesty The King in 1976 when he was HRH The Prince Of Wales. Since then it has helped more than 1,000,000 young people. Three in four young people on Prince’s Trust courses move into work, education or training. If you're a young person, or want to enquire on behalf of a young person, call us free on 0800 842 842 or Live Chat here > www.princes-trust.org.uk. We're open from 9am-6pm, Mon-Fri.
