"I heard about the project through an advisor at the advice store in Basildon. I have been unemployed for a long time due to mental and physical health problems. I needed to get out of the house and I believed that part-time work was what I needed.

I was helped to update my CV and search for jobs on different sites online. They also helped me register with different job sites.

My tutor was supportive and understanding of my needs. I now feel more confident about socialising and getting back to work. I can see I have something to offer now."
