A project helping people aged 54 and older get back into work is holding an information day in Newtown.
The ‘Support for the Community’ event is being held at the Monty Club in Newtown on Tuesday, 21 August between 11am and 3pm.
It will have representatives from Citizen’s Advice Bureau, PRIME Cymru’s Mentoring Scheme, Age Cymru, Careers Wales, Care and Repair, Powys County Council, Communities for Work+ and Business Wales.
Workways+ Powys offer free, tailored and individual support to help people overcome barriers to getting back into work, including mentoring, confidence building, informal help with online and traditional job-seeking, interview skills, help with CV writing, sourcing trial work placements, training, or guidance on setting-up in business.
Janet Davies, Development Officer Workways+ Powys said: "It is wonderful that so many providers are coming together in one location to provide advice, help and support to the people of Newtown and the surrounding areas.
"If this event proves successful perhaps we can replicate it on other areas of north Powys."
If you or someone you know would like to get involved then see Workways+ Powys on Facebook for more information, or contact Janet Davies, janetd@primecymru.co.uk or 07507 795048.
