An event in Antrim brought together 266 attendees to explore pathways in further education, training, employment and independent living support.

The Antrim and Newtownabbey Labour Market Partnership organised the gathering, titled Opening Doors Beyond School.

Twenty-two organisations took part as exhibitors. Providers included All About Us - ASD Teens, King’s Trust, Northern Regional College, Northern Health and Social Care Trust and Next Step Transitions.

Students, parents and service providers met at the venue. The setup allowed direct connections between participants and support options for young people after school.
