We offer employability support for those who are looking to get into work, volunteering or training. We work 1:1 and can take you through the entire employability pipeline, from pre-employability to in-work support. This is only for individuals who have a conviction/s.
What does the support look like?
We offer trauma-informed mentoring either in job centres, food banks or cafes. We empower clients to achieve short/long-term goals.
What will I get?
We can give disclosure advice and training, CV creating and editing as well as interview advice and practice. We also have £200 per client for ID requirements and training (such as CSCS or SIA Security).
We support you to job search and apply for suitable work/volunteering/placements. We can also provide in-work support.
When
This is a rolling programme, please refer as and when necessary. Duration on this programme is flexible and decided on how long you feel you need.
Where
High Riggs/Leith/Wester Hailes job centres. We also have drop ins and regularly visit Social Bite and Edinburgh Food Project food banks.
