Get Work Ready

The focus for the Get Work Ready Programme will be to support participants to employment, alongside additional education,  training, or other opportunities which will help to improve the participants employability. 

The Get Work Ready Programme provides targeted, personalised, effective employment assistance and advice to job seekers.
