Referral Partners Drop-in Session
Thursday 11th February – Online 2pm
Do you support people in Northumberland who are out of work and face barriers to returning?
Bridge Northumberland offers a free programme of one-to-one support and welcome referrals in from anyone who has contact with people out of work.
This drop-in session is for those who may refer people in to Bridge Northumberland and is a chance to find out more about the programme, meet a Bridge Worker and ask questions.
We help people find their potential and enable them to move into education, training or work. We do this by giving one to support through a dedicated Bridge worker to help people improve their confidence and develop their skills.
Our support is free and fully funded by the European Social Fund and the National Lottery Community Fund. We’ve successfully supported over 1,000 Northumberland residents get a positive outcome.
We welcome referrals to our programme from partners from the voluntary sector, local Facebook community groups and support agencies across Northumberland, and this session is an introduction to what we offer.
