Day Time Work Skills
This programme was set up in 2009 to help our members learn skills for work. Members use their Personal Budget or Direct Payments to buy in up to 5 days of service per week.
Members are closely supported by a team of friendly support workers to achieve in their chosen area of work.
Currently we able to offer members positions in: Catering, Gardening, Administration, Production Skills (making things such as bird boxes, candles, jewellery etc), befriending of local elderly and disabled people and Independent Living Skills.
Those committed to learning some real skills for real work could take part in a trial, to find out more details about availability please email our Work Skills Manager Steve Smith at stevesmith@aboutwithfriends.co.uk
