We help single parents to develop the skills and confidence they need to get back into work. Through our training courses, running in locations across England and Wales, we support single parents to explore what type of job might suit them and provide practical support to help them get there – including work experience with a range of leading businesses.

Whatever stage you’re at, we’ve got a course for you – from CV writing and interview preparation to managing your money.

Find out more about the training courses we offer and who we work with, and get in touch if you’re interested in taking part.
