7th May 2008
Gingerbread NI is delighted to be working again in partnership with Marks & Spencer and One Parent Families|Gingerbread to deliver its Lone Parents Returning to Work programme.
This week 17 lone parents started the programme which offers work preparation training (within school hours, three days a week), tailored for lone parents. The programme aims to ease the transition into work by preparing lone parents for the transition and making them aware of the support channels available.
This programme will help the 17 lone parents make an informed decision about whether returning to work is right for them and will prepare them for the world of work whilst enhancing employability skills.
The next Lone Parents Returning to Work programme starts in September 2008.
