The Prince's Trust YouGov Youth Index 2010, 07/01/10 [W/E/NI/S]

The Prince’s Trust YouGov Youth Index reveals that those out of work are significantly less happy with their health, friendships and family life than those in work.

The report, based on interviews with 2,088 16-to-25-year-olds, found that:

One in ten young people (11 per cent) claim that unemployment drove them to drugs or alcohol.
A quarter (25 per cent) of young people who are or have been unemployed claim their joblessness caused arguments with parents or other family.
More than a quarter (28 per cent) claim that unemployment caused them to exercise less, with around one in six of those currently out of work (17 per cent) getting no exercise at all.

The report is available to download from the Prince’s Trust website.
