Last week we found out that the unemployment rate hit its highest peak in the past three years. That was according to a Grant Thornton report. An interesting aspect of said report was that 12.2% of young people are currently unemployed, but why exactly is that the case? Have young people suddenly developed an allergic reaction to work, or is something larger at play? 

To discuss with Pat was Louis Copeland, Owner of Louis Copeland and sons, Lorraine Sweeney, Hotelier and also Declan Keenan, Youth Worker from Just Ask.
