Alternatively go to www.worksbetter.co.uk and tell us how we can help.
Our job is to get you ‘work ready’ and that will mean something slightly different for everyone we help. We all have barriers that stop us doing things – and in the case of getting a job it could be childcare issues, low confidence, or a lack of IT skills. Our experienced team will create a unique programme for you that maximises your potential and gets you back into work.
As well as helping you, we also have a Works Better Jobs Team who are working with local businesses and sourcing vacancies for people returning to work. Not every job is suitable, we look to work with employers who see the benefit of employing someone returning to work.
