Our Services

Transition to Work (TtW)

Helping young people aged 15-24 find a job and keep it.

We give practical support to develop employability skills and understand workplace expectations.

We help you identify your strengths, aspirations, skills and any practical challenges to finding a job.

Transitioning to work is about more than just finding a job.

It's about getting the right skills and training to prepare you for work.

We’ll do this by:

• Exploring career options and the necessary training
• Supporting to gain a driver’s licence
