Last Thursday, Lisa, our Head of EET and Life Skills, and Mary Ann, our Employment Coach, headed to the New York Stadium to meet with other organisations delivering the Pathways to Work project, along with Adult Skills Fund providers for Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council. The event was a great opportunity to network and connect with the brilliant training providers working across the borough. It helped us learn more about the wide range of options available, so we can better support the people on our programme and guide them towards the right opportunities for their goals. Itโ€™s always inspiring to work alongside so many organisations committed to helping people move forward.
