CONCLUSION

Abstract

The one person perhaps most conscious of the particular difficulties of Newcastle's school leavers is Miss B. G. Calderwood, the city's youth employment officer. The Youth Employment Service has been operative in Newcastle since 1913 and has witnessed the growth and vicissitudes of its population through the gruelling pre‐war slump up to the present day. Even now Miss Calderwood's job is very different from those in more prosperous areas. In Bristol, it will be remembered, unemployment was something that happened to other people. For many in Newcastle it happens to you, to your immediate family, and to your neighbours. In boom times it lessens, returning as soon as the cycle of depression is completed.
