Employment support for adults

We provide tailored employment support to adults facing complex barriers.

What it is

Sustainable employment is often the final step on the road to independence.  However the barriers people face may include homelessness, time in prison, mental health challenges, addiction, or long-term unemployment. Many of the people we help have been excluded from traditional services and need a more personal, understanding approach.

We work at each person’s pace to build confidence, skills, and a pathway into meaningful work. Our experienced team offers:

  • Help with CVs and job applications
  • Job search guidance and support
  • Interview preparation
  • Access to training and qualifications
  • Support with work-related costs such as tools or equipment
  • Ensuring benefits are accurate and relevant to each person
  • Advice on sustaining employment and progressing in the workplace
  • Travel support assistance for travel apps and navigating the way to work or interview

Our approach is client-led, strengths-based, and rooted in lived experience. We empower people to make informed choices and take practical steps toward employment that works for them.
