We offer six months’ free coaching and mentoring to:
- Provide confidential, dedicated one-to-one support (up to 18 hours), either over the phone or online, and unlimited email encouragement.
- Help you set goals to improve your circumstances. This could include updating your CV, looking at how to enhance your existing skillsets or developing a better understanding of the financial support available to you.
The sessions are led by Neil Holman (pictured), an independent consultant specialising in employment support and mental health issues.
