Employment Readiness Programme (ERP)
The ERP supports women who are experiencing barriers to employment, who are not in work or education and are looking to get into their next step to starting their journey of returning to the workforce.
We do this through supporting women with employment training, work experience and support with other employment related aspects, such as creating a CV and gaining a reference and individual coaching and through offering supportive, transitional work opportunities.
Through coaching and training, we look to equip women and young girls with different resources, skills, and mindsets to get them work-ready whether it's employment or self-employment.
They learn to take realistic steps to develop essential skills and confidence to help develop their potential.
At the end of the programme, those who wish to continue with support into the next phase, are introduced to new and exciting opportunities and career support.
So what are you waiting for…

Business Start-Up Programme
We are proud to share that since 2017, we have helped support and facilitated numerous business platforms for minority ethnic women.

-
Who is already running an early-stage business
The programme trains and supports women in essential soft skills, and digital skills and provides facilitation opportunities for them to sell their products in retail space and online markets like Amazon, Esty, eBay, and social media.














Business Start-Up Programme
The programmes provide three stage opportunities;
1. Train and polish income ideas
2. Access retail experience in Pop-up shop to test products and services in local settings
3. Access to the marketplace
To show our commitment to support, a further 8 sessions of follow-up mentoring are provided to ensure we are with you addressing any practical and strategic help you may need.
By providing an online marketplace for women we want to be the catalyst in creating a community that facilitates an eco-system for women owned businesses by creating greater awareness among socially conscious shoppers and supporters of women owned businesses.
