Our employment advisors work with and support people in the local community (and across Buckinghamshire) to create life changing opportunities for them, helping them into sustainable employment and into career furthering education and training opportunities. We offer one to one advice and guidance and support people by guiding people into making practical steps and decisions that ultimately result in a better and positive quality of life. We source local partners, organisations and employers willing to provide and/or create opportunities that effectively improve and develop participants life skills and knowledge.
