Rosie's Job Club story

Rosie, an Angel local, started attending St Luke’s Job Club in the summer of last year, to build up confidence and skills after working for the same organisation for many years and being made redundant. She loves the club because it is flexible around childcare, and is all inclusive, helping a range of people get back into employment with advice, workshops and practical support.

When Rosie left her previous role her confidence was at rock bottom, but Job Club has given her that confidence back to attend interviews, having spoken to our corporate volunteers and attended an Interview Skills Workshop. She has also pursued some voluntary work, using her skills to help organise a Young Persons’ Wellbeing Event.

In Rosie’s words: “I wish more people knew about Job Club. It has really helped me become more confident in myself.”

Job Club runs weekly, on Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons, 1 – 3 pm. Booking is essential. Please come along and see how we can help you get into employment.
