My approach would be similar but also very different. I'd offer up a similar timeframe after which I'd have mandatory volunteering positions set up so that they can earn the money but also gain work experience at the same time. It's a bit more realistic as a lot of companies wouldn't turn down a free workforce and it's beneficial to both sides in the long run.

They did have a similar scheme going when Labour was in power. It was scraped when the Tories took over.
