Last weekend, we hosted a special event for young traders at the newly improved Chapel Market to help them hone their skills and meet new customers. The event, organised by NMTF, included a competitive element as the young traders did their best to impress a panel of judges. The winner, Jess, runs a business selling hand-made accessories for dogs, called When Dogs. 🐶 Cllr Santiago Bell-Bradford was one of the judges. He said: “Chapel Market has a long history of supporting new businesses and I am so pleased to see the next generation of traders making the most of the improved facilities here at Chapel Market." If you know someone who needs some help with their career, this summer is the perfect time to take advantage of the support on offer in Islington. We offer a huge range of employment support and opportunities, including from our dedicated iWork team. We also have the Progress team who work with young people to help them figure out their next steps, whether that's in education or employment. #DoSummer #EmploymentSupport #MarketTraders #YoungTraders
