Without people in meaningful work, communities cannot function. We help people to retrain, gain confidence and gain valuable work experience through supported employment. From structured volunteering to formal placements with employers, we help people move on a journey towards employment.
We operate different skills programmes in different places and deliver government work initiatives, but they are all about motivation and changing lives. Often our programmes are linked to improving the local environment or growing new skills for a greener economy.
People on a journey towards employment come to us for support, training courses and qualifications. We provide career and back to work advice and interview training, job search support and CV building.
We focus on supporting young people and ex-offenders who are not in education, employment and training into work. For more information click here.
