Projects

• Youth & Employability Hub: We were the first professional club to host a Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) Youth Hub, with a focus on helping to improve employment outcomes and prospects for unemployed individuals and groups who face complex barriers to work. The provision is specifically aimed at 18–24-year-olds, with referrals coming directly from Jobcentre Work Coaches — so if you’re in that age group and want to explore the possibility of being referred, speak to your Work Coach. We create individual action plans for young people, giving them the motivation and support to move closer to or into employment. The provision includes support with writing CVs, mock interviews, course referrals, voluntary work, referrals to business start-ups, and exploring apprenticeship opportunities.
• QFutures – Quickline – employability support to participant aged 30yrs over. Provide individuals with a tailored support package to equip them with the skills to move closer into work. Help raise their confidence with the recruitment process and remove barriers to enable them to secure meaningful employment. Enhance employability skills through providing 1-1 career coaching, CV writing, interview preparation and digital skills training and tackle any challenges they might be facing, physically, emotionally or mentally. The programme will help raise aspiration and empower all to take ownership of their career path, leading to increased employment rates, greater financial stability, and stronger local economic growth.
• Weekly Job Club — Every Wednesday, we run a Job Club where young people can explore current job opportunities, get support with applications, and take part in discussions on all thing’s employability. Topics include CV writing, interview tips and preparation, understanding current labour market information (LMI), volunteering opportunities, and more — all designed to help improve employability skills.
