The why:

You want to apply for a job that has good prospects, steady employment and room to grow. However, the job requires a
course or qualification to start it, a course that is not covered by government or council funding and you are unable to cover the cost yourself. 

At Working Well Trust we work with our clients on an individual basis to help them find jobs that will support and suit each one. Which is why it is frustrating when opportunities are closed to us by lack of access to short courses and qualifications that can unlock industry or sector progression.

This is why Working Well Trust is running to raise funds to provide vocation focused short courses and qualifications for clients. These small courses and certificates do not receive government or council funding but can be vital in clients accessing sectors and careers that they want to pursue. These include coding courses, food safety qualifications, and Security Industry Authority (SIA) licenses.

How will the money be spent?

Courses and qualifications will have to
meet the following criteria:

1) Short course or qualification (under 6 months)

2) Sector Specific

3) Fulfilling a defined employment goal and offering career progression

4) No free alternative and no other funding offered
