		<description><![CDATA[What are your views? Two recent articles in The Guardian discuss how young people are having to commit to undertake 8 weeks&#8217; work experience for free in retail shops, and how the  Work Programme for long-term unemployed will involve up to 6 months&#8217; compulsory community service.

		<description><![CDATA[The main thing young people want when they come on our courses is more confidence. Everyone who has attended &#8220;Fire Me Up!&#8221; or &#8220;Ignite!&#8221; knows how Inner Flame helps you achieve that. But what do other people think? You can&#8217;t get confidence from just reading stuff. You&#8217;re going to have to take action. However, you [...]]]></description>
