Do you know someone who is currently unemployed or simply doesn't know what they want to do?  We are hosting our 2 Week Wellbeing and Business BootCamps each month.  These bootcamps develop your personal and professional skills providing you with everything you need to get a job.  The activities are delivered by employers and industry leaders so what you learn is what businesses are looking for and we have actual job and apprenticeship opportunities available for successful candidates. 
Last month we had a range of employers and business leaders help develop a range of skills including Interview, CV, Application Writing, Presentation & Communication Skills, Understanding Strengths and Recognising Weaknesses, Resilience and Problem Solving including a Team Building and Leadership Session delivered by Sergeant Major Mark Hill MBE from the Armed Forces that was great fun.
