Scott Walker, 22, from Airdrie, had been looking for work since he left school at 18.  With support from North Lanarkshire's Working and Jobcentre Plus he has now secured a job with contact centre services company beCogent.  

A group of Lanarkshire families have spent their summer getting ready to give unemployment the red card with the help of Motherwell Football Club.

A training programme called Fit for Your Family's Future was launched by North Lanarkshire's Working in partnership with the club on 20th July.
