Working towards gaining employment, training or returning to education

Preparing to meet new challenges on a new journey

The 21st century employment market, we use a realistic approach to assess skills and abilities to see if the young person requires extra help with Course work  to maximise their chances of achieving realistic goals.

Changing the mindset & moving forward with a realistic approach

Gaining vital skills which can help lead to employment or a training placement : 

If today they lack the skills, tomorrow they can start to work on obtaining some of those skills. If they have been told "no you can't", tomorrow they will hear "yes you can if you.."'

Programmes :    -  Changing Direction    -  Crisis Management    -  Supported Living    -  One to One support 

Change will always bring big challenges to an unfunctional home

Mediation is built around the young person providing a safe space to have their views heard without interruption and helps prevent a fractured situation escalating.  

The state of the economy does not help, with an already sensitive situation everybody is having to make sacrifices. This coupled with a dysfunctional household where there may be low employment, lack of privacy and a parent dealing with their own issues, home is the last place they would want to be. We prepare our young people and their families to be better equipped with the right tools to take on and meet those challenges.

Activity based learning & breaking down barriers

Getting creative an opportunity to find new interests, our programmes can be challenging so it is important to strike a balance and have an outlet with over thirteen activities to choose from we would like to think there is something for everyone.
