Thank you for your help. Without the help of staff at Cumbria Youth Alliance and the small group sessions I wouldn't have had the confidence to go out and look for a job. I am much more confident now; I am talking to everyone at work without being nervous or panicking. So thank you very much
Chelsea: Choices
During subsequent conversations with lead workers and CEO (Cath Clarke). I came to understand just how successful this programme was with 40 of 42 participants recording a positive outcome in relation to employment, further education and/or training - a truly extraordinary ‘hit rate’ given the background and learning difficulties of many participants. I have no hesitation in commending this programme, and organisation.
