Connexions PAs In partnership with Connexions, the Craven team has two part time Personal Advisors based at “The Hub” in Settle and at our office in Skipton. Our PAs provide information and advice on education, employment and training for young people aged 13-19. They work closely with local colleges and employers to ensure young people can progress forward with their goals. There are opportunities to get involved in the Settle Youth Council and similar participative activities based in Skipton (e.g. customers recently took part in a graffiti workshop for our new computer access point where young people can now find information about jobs and careers).
