Celebrating the Barnsley Street Neighbourhood Mental Hub
1 Week ago by Jason Armstrong
Our Tower Hamlets IPS team hosted the first session of our Getting Back into Employment workshop alongside our friends at Tower Hamlets Recovery College
The workshop was separated into two sessions the first tailored advice on the benefits of career growth, barriers to work & disclosure at work while the second focused on practical skills such as making a CV, applying for jobs, and interview tips.
Both sessions were warmly received by attendees who made sure to let us know how much they valued the workshops.
“Good atmosphere, well-paced, interesting and motivational”
“Excellent trainers with a lot of skills knowledge and experience in the area”
“Thank you for everything. I feel as though I am now more confident to attend my interview!”
“Trainers are very helpful. Thank you”
Finally we asked Isabel employment specialist on the Tower Hamlets IPS service and one of the trainers on the course how she felt it went.
“It felt good! Everyone was very engaged, and I learned a lot from their own personal experiences as well. It seems to be a good way to give back to the community.”
Once again a huge thank you to the staff at the Recovery College including their Peer Coach Joseph. To find out more about the Tower Hamlets Recovery College you can visit their website here
