Princes Trust
Barrowford MOT supports The Prince’s Trust, which enables 14-30 year olds to get their lives working, developing confidence and skills to get into work or start their own businesses. It particularly targets those who are unemployed, under skilled, within or leaving the criminal justice system or leaving care.
The 12 week full time programme undertaken at Barrowford MOT is aimed to re-engage young people aged 16-25 to help them to think positively about their futures. Work placements form a very valuable part of this experience as many young people face barriers to employment, not least a local of confidence due to little experience or knowledge of the workplace.

Barrowford MOT takes a frontline stance on fundraising within Cancer Support. We are currently supporting numerous charities and support groups across Lancashire and Pendle. “Donna’s Dream House” is a holiday home in Blackpool offering United Kingdom children and their families’ free holidays.
