Parenting 2000 have a new course starting on Sept 9th called Mindful Futures. It is a six week course taking place online on Wednesdays (9.30-2.30).
We will have 4 cohorts over the course of the 2020/2021 which will always follow school half terms to help those with school-aged children.
The course is for people who would like to gain employment, return to work or are interested in training but are struggling due to having low confidence or feel anxious about making those first steps. Each week we will be looking at how to feel well enough to make that move using a combination of teacher led sessions, creative arts, project work and mindfulness whilst encouraging plenty of peer led support- we are aiming for a nurturing space with no judgment (both teachers are also therapists).
A Zoom link will be sent to the learner which they can use on a phone/tablet or laptop. All the resources they need will be sent in the post or couriered, including an art pack for the creative workshops. If internet access is an issue, we can provide a dongle.
We have run other courses successfully on line over lockdown so are confident that Mindful Futures will work well in this way too.
Enrollment appointments are available on Friday (11th) and Tuesday (15th) between 10-2- enrollment can be done on line or in person.
Course starts Wednesday 16th September from 9.30am - 2.30pm then every Wednesday for 6 weeks
To be eligible you have to be over 19, live in Merseyside and be unemployed (with the right to work in the UK). Lunch and travel expenses (on public transport) are provided.

CSCS Green Card
With the option to have additional training / cards fully funded upon completion of the routeway thanks to Procure Plus and Jobcentre Plus. The additional training will depend on the likely hood of work being obtained and if it is required for future job goals.
During the program we will have guest speakers from the industry to come in and talk about what it's like not just to work on site, but the different and varied career paths available in the construction sector. We will also have hands on practical sessions covering such elements as joinery, plastering, tiling and other trade skills.
Upon completion we will have opportunities for work placements on live sites, apprenticeships, and live job opportunities to apply for.

Parenting 2000 have a new course starting on Sept 9th called Mindful Futures. It is a six week course taking place online on Wednesdays (9.30-2.30).
We will have 4 cohorts over the course of the 2020/2021 which will always follow school half terms to help those with school-aged children.
The course is for people who would like to gain employment, return to work or are interested in training but are struggling due to having low confidence or feel anxious about making those first steps. Each week we will be looking at how to feel well enough to make that move using a combination of teacher led sessions, creative arts, project work and mindfulness whilst encouraging plenty of peer led support- we are aiming for a nurturing space with no judgment (both teachers are also therapists).
A Zoom link will be sent to the learner which they can use on a phone/tablet or laptop. All the resources they need will be sent in the post or couriered, including an art pack for the creative workshops. If internet access is an issue, we can provide a dongle.
We have run other courses successfully on line over lockdown so are confident that Mindful Futures will work well in this way too.
Enrollment appointments are available on Friday (11th) and Tuesday (15th) between 10-2- enrollment can be done on line or in person.
Course starts Wednesday 16th September from 9.30am - 2.30pm then every Wednesday for 6 weeks

This is not just a course designed to steer women into construction but also to demonstrate the different job roles available in the sector, how to go about getting qualifications and apprenticeships in specific trades and to help boost skills that they can use within their own home. They will also receive transferable skills that could be used to apply for work outside of the construction sector.
During the training candidates will receive the following training:
Entry Level 3 City and Guilds Construction Qualification.
Employability Skills for Construction (Modules below)
Skills Assessment & Self Development

CSCS Green Card
With the option to have additional training / cards fully funded upon completion of the routeway thanks to Procure Plus and Jobcentre Plus. The additional training will depend on the likely hood of work being obtained and if it is required for future job goals.
During the program we will have guest speakers from the industry to come in and talk about what it's like not just to work on site, but the different and varied career paths available in the construction sector. We will also have hands on practical sessions covering such elements as joinery, plastering, tiling and other trade skills.
Upon completion we will have opportunities for work placements on live sites, apprenticeships, and live job opportunities to apply for.

Parenting 2000 have a new course starting on Sept 9th called Mindful Futures. It is a six week course taking place online on Wednesdays (9.30-2.30).
We will have 4 cohorts over the course of the 2020/2021 which will always follow school half terms to help those with school-aged children.
The course is for people who would like to gain employment, return to work or are interested in training but are struggling due to having low confidence or feel anxious about making those first steps. Each week we will be looking at how to feel well enough to make that move using a combination of teacher led sessions, creative arts, project work and mindfulness whilst encouraging plenty of peer led support- we are aiming for a nurturing space with no judgment (both teachers are also therapists).
A Zoom link will be sent to the learner which they can use on a phone/tablet or laptop. All the resources they need will be sent in the post or couriered, including an art pack for the creative workshops. If internet access is an issue, we can provide a dongle.
We have run other courses successfully on line over lockdown so are confident that Mindful Futures will work well in this way too.
Enrollment appointments are available on Friday (11th) and Tuesday (15th) between 10-2- enrollment can be done on line or in person.
Course starts Wednesday 16th September from 9.30am - 2.30pm then every Wednesday for 6 weeks

Parenting 2000 have a new course starting on Sept 9th called Mindful Futures. It is a six week course taking place online on Wednesdays (9.30-2.30).
We will have 4 cohorts over the course of the 2020/2021 which will always follow school half terms to help those with school-aged children.
The course is for people who would like to gain employment, return to work or are interested in training but are struggling due to having low confidence or feel anxious about making those first steps. Each week we will be looking at how to feel well enough to make that move using a combination of teacher led sessions, creative arts, project work and mindfulness whilst encouraging plenty of peer led support- we are aiming for a nurturing space with no judgment (both teachers are also therapists).
A Zoom link will be sent to the learner which they can use on a phone/tablet or laptop. All the resources they need will be sent in the post or couriered, including an art pack for the creative workshops. If internet access is an issue, we can provide a dongle.
We have run other courses successfully on line over lockdown so are confident that Mindful Futures will work well in this way too.
Enrollment appointments are available on Friday (11th) and Tuesday (15th) between 10-2- enrollment can be done on line or in person.
Course starts Wednesday 16th September from 9.30am - 2.30pm then every Wednesday for 6 weeks

Parenting 2000 have a new course starting on Sept 9th called Mindful Futures. It is a six week course taking place online on Wednesdays (9.30-2.30).
We will have 4 cohorts over the course of the 2020/2021 which will always follow school half terms to help those with school-aged children.
The course is for people who would like to gain employment, return to work or are interested in training but are struggling due to having low confidence or feel anxious about making those first steps. Each week we will be looking at how to feel well enough to make that move using a combination of teacher led sessions, creative arts, project work and mindfulness whilst encouraging plenty of peer led support- we are aiming for a nurturing space with no judgment (both teachers are also therapists).
A Zoom link will be sent to the learner which they can use on a phone/tablet or laptop. All the resources they need will be sent in the post or couriered, including an art pack for the creative workshops. If internet access is an issue, we can provide a dongle.
We have run other courses successfully on line over lockdown so are confident that Mindful Futures will work well in this way too.
Enrollment appointments are available on Friday (11th) and Tuesday (15th) between 10-2- enrollment can be done on line or in person.
Course starts Wednesday 16th September from 9.30am - 2.30pm then every Wednesday for 6 weeks
To be eligible you have to be over 19, live in Merseyside and be unemployed (with the right to work in the UK). Lunch and travel expenses (on public transport) are provided.

Parenting 2000 have a new course starting on Sept 9th called Mindful Futures. It is a six week course taking place online on Wednesdays (9.30-2.30).
We will have 4 cohorts over the course of the 2020/2021 which will always follow school half terms to help those with school-aged children.
The course is for people who would like to gain employment, return to work or are interested in training but are struggling due to having low confidence or feel anxious about making those first steps. Each week we will be looking at how to feel well enough to make that move using a combination of teacher led sessions, creative arts, project work and mindfulness whilst encouraging plenty of peer led support- we are aiming for a nurturing space with no judgment (both teachers are also therapists).
A Zoom link will be sent to the learner which they can use on a phone/tablet or laptop. All the resources they need will be sent in the post or couriered, including an art pack for the creative workshops. If internet access is an issue, we can provide a dongle.
We have run other courses successfully on line over lockdown so are confident that Mindful Futures will work well in this way too.
Enrollment appointments are available on Friday (11th) and Tuesday (15th) between 10-2- enrollment can be done on line or in person.
Course starts Wednesday 16th September from 9.30am - 2.30pm then every Wednesday for 6 weeks
To be eligible you have to be over 19, live in Merseyside and be unemployed (with the right to work in the UK). Lunch and travel expenses (on public transport) are provided.

Parenting 2000 have a new course starting on Sept 9th called Mindful Futures. It is a six week course taking place online on Wednesdays (9.30-2.30).
We will have 4 cohorts over the course of the 2020/2021 which will always follow school half terms to help those with school-aged children.
The course is for people who would like to gain employment, return to work or are interested in training but are struggling due to having low confidence or feel anxious about making those first steps. Each week we will be looking at how to feel well enough to make that move using a combination of teacher led sessions, creative arts, project work and mindfulness whilst encouraging plenty of peer led support- we are aiming for a nurturing space with no judgment (both teachers are also therapists).
A Zoom link will be sent to the learner which they can use on a phone/tablet or laptop. All the resources they need will be sent in the post or couriered, including an art pack for the creative workshops. If internet access is an issue, we can provide a dongle.
We have run other courses successfully on line over lockdown so are confident that Mindful Futures will work well in this way too.
Enrollment appointments are available on Friday (11th) and Tuesday (15th) between 10-2- enrollment can be done on line or in person.
Course starts Wednesday 16th September from 9.30am - 2.30pm then every Wednesday for 6 weeks
To be eligible you have to be over 19, live in Merseyside and be unemployed (with the right to work in the UK). Lunch and travel expenses (on public transport) are provided.

Parenting 2000 have a new course starting on Sept 9th called Mindful Futures. It is a six week course taking place online on Wednesdays (9.30-2.30).
We will have 4 cohorts over the course of the 2020/2021 which will always follow school half terms to help those with school-aged children.
The course is for people who would like to gain employment, return to work or are interested in training but are struggling due to having low confidence or feel anxious about making those first steps. Each week we will be looking at how to feel well enough to make that move using a combination of teacher led sessions, creative arts, project work and mindfulness whilst encouraging plenty of peer led support- we are aiming for a nurturing space with no judgment (both teachers are also therapists).
A Zoom link will be sent to the learner which they can use on a phone/tablet or laptop. All the resources they need will be sent in the post or couriered, including an art pack for the creative workshops. If internet access is an issue, we can provide a dongle.
We have run other courses successfully on line over lockdown so are confident that Mindful Futures will work well in this way too.
Enrollment appointments are available on Friday (11th) and Tuesday (15th) between 10-2- enrollment can be done on line or in person.
Course starts Wednesday 16th September from 9.30am - 2.30pm then every Wednesday for 6 weeks

Parenting 2000 have a new course starting on Sept 9th called Mindful Futures. It is a six week course taking place online on Wednesdays (9.30-2.30).
We will have 4 cohorts over the course of the 2020/2021 which will always follow school half terms to help those with school-aged children.
The course is for people who would like to gain employment, return to work or are interested in training but are struggling due to having low confidence or feel anxious about making those first steps. Each week we will be looking at how to feel well enough to make that move using a combination of teacher led sessions, creative arts, project work and mindfulness whilst encouraging plenty of peer led support- we are aiming for a nurturing space with no judgment (both teachers are also therapists).
A Zoom link will be sent to the learner which they can use on a phone/tablet or laptop. All the resources they need will be sent in the post or couriered, including an art pack for the creative workshops. If internet access is an issue, we can provide a dongle.
We have run other courses successfully on line over lockdown so are confident that Mindful Futures will work well in this way too.
Enrollment appointments are available on Friday (11th) and Tuesday (15th) between 10-2- enrollment can be done on line or in person.
Course starts Wednesday 16th September from 9.30am - 2.30pm then every Wednesday for 6 weeks
To be eligible you have to be over 19, live in Merseyside and be unemployed (with the right to work in the UK). Lunch and travel expenses (on public transport) are provided.

We have run other courses successfully on line over lockdown so are confident that Mindful Futures will work well in this way too.
Enrollment appointments are available on Friday (11th) and Tuesday (15th) between 10-2- enrollment can be done on line or in person.
Course starts Wednesday 16th September from 9.30am - 2.30pm then every Wednesday for 6 weeks
To be eligible you have to be over 19, live in Merseyside and be unemployed (with the right to work in the UK). Lunch and travel expenses (on public transport) are provided.

Parenting 2000 have a new course starting on Sept 9th called Mindful Futures. It is a six week course taking place online on Wednesdays (9.30-2.30).
We will have 4 cohorts over the course of the 2020/2021 which will always follow school half terms to help those with school-aged children.
The course is for people who would like to gain employment, return to work or are interested in training but are struggling due to having low confidence or feel anxious about making those first steps. Each week we will be looking at how to feel well enough to make that move using a combination of teacher led sessions, creative arts, project work and mindfulness whilst encouraging plenty of peer led support- we are aiming for a nurturing space with no judgment (both teachers are also therapists).
A Zoom link will be sent to the learner which they can use on a phone/tablet or laptop. All the resources they need will be sent in the post or couriered, including an art pack for the creative workshops. If internet access is an issue, we can provide a dongle.
We have run other courses successfully on line over lockdown so are confident that Mindful Futures will work well in this way too.
Enrollment appointments are available on Friday (11th) and Tuesday (15th) between 10-2- enrollment can be done on line or in person.
Course starts Wednesday 16th September from 9.30am - 2.30pm then every Wednesday for 6 weeks

Parenting 2000 have a new course starting on Sept 9th called Mindful Futures. It is a six week course taking place online on Wednesdays (9.30-2.30).
We will have 4 cohorts over the course of the 2020/2021 which will always follow school half terms to help those with school-aged children.
The course is for people who would like to gain employment, return to work or are interested in training but are struggling due to having low confidence or feel anxious about making those first steps. Each week we will be looking at how to feel well enough to make that move using a combination of teacher led sessions, creative arts, project work and mindfulness whilst encouraging plenty of peer led support- we are aiming for a nurturing space with no judgment (both teachers are also therapists).
A Zoom link will be sent to the learner which they can use on a phone/tablet or laptop. All the resources they need will be sent in the post or couriered, including an art pack for the creative workshops. If internet access is an issue, we can provide a dongle.
We have run other courses successfully on line over lockdown so are confident that Mindful Futures will work well in this way too.
Enrollment appointments are available on Friday (11th) and Tuesday (15th) between 10-2- enrollment can be done on line or in person.
Course starts Wednesday 16th September from 9.30am - 2.30pm then every Wednesday for 6 weeks
To be eligible you have to be over 19, live in Merseyside and be unemployed (with the right to work in the UK). Lunch and travel expenses (on public transport) are provided.

Parenting 2000 have a new course starting on Sept 9th called Mindful Futures. It is a six week course taking place online on Wednesdays (9.30-2.30).
We will have 4 cohorts over the course of the 2020/2021 which will always follow school half terms to help those with school-aged children.
The course is for people who would like to gain employment, return to work or are interested in training but are struggling due to having low confidence or feel anxious about making those first steps. Each week we will be looking at how to feel well enough to make that move using a combination of teacher led sessions, creative arts, project work and mindfulness whilst encouraging plenty of peer led support- we are aiming for a nurturing space with no judgment (both teachers are also therapists).
A Zoom link will be sent to the learner which they can use on a phone/tablet or laptop. All the resources they need will be sent in the post or couriered, including an art pack for the creative workshops. If internet access is an issue, we can provide a dongle.
We have run other courses successfully on line over lockdown so are confident that Mindful Futures will work well in this way too.
Enrollment appointments are available on Friday (11th) and Tuesday (15th) between 10-2- enrollment can be done on line or in person.
Course starts Wednesday 16th September from 9.30am - 2.30pm then every Wednesday for 6 weeks
To be eligible you have to be over 19, live in Merseyside and be unemployed (with the right to work in the UK). Lunch and travel expenses (on public transport) are provided.

Parenting 2000 have a new course starting on Sept 9th called Mindful Futures. It is a six week course taking place online on Wednesdays (9.30-2.30).
We will have 4 cohorts over the course of the 2020/2021 which will always follow school half terms to help those with school-aged children.
The course is for people who would like to gain employment, return to work or are interested in training but are struggling due to having low confidence or feel anxious about making those first steps. Each week we will be looking at how to feel well enough to make that move using a combination of teacher led sessions, creative arts, project work and mindfulness whilst encouraging plenty of peer led support- we are aiming for a nurturing space with no judgment (both teachers are also therapists).
A Zoom link will be sent to the learner which they can use on a phone/tablet or laptop. All the resources they need will be sent in the post or couriered, including an art pack for the creative workshops. If internet access is an issue, we can provide a dongle.
We have run other courses successfully on line over lockdown so are confident that Mindful Futures will work well in this way too.
Enrollment appointments are available on Friday (11th) and Tuesday (15th) between 10-2- enrollment can be done on line or in person.
Course starts Wednesday 16th September from 9.30am - 2.30pm then every Wednesday for 6 weeks
To be eligible you have to be over 19, live in Merseyside and be unemployed (with the right to work in the UK). Lunch and travel expenses (on public transport) are provided.

Parenting 2000 have a new course starting on Sept 9th called Mindful Futures. It is a six week course taking place online on Wednesdays (9.30-2.30).
We will have 4 cohorts over the course of the 2020/2021 which will always follow school half terms to help those with school-aged children.
The course is for people who would like to gain employment, return to work or are interested in training but are struggling due to having low confidence or feel anxious about making those first steps. Each week we will be looking at how to feel well enough to make that move using a combination of teacher led sessions, creative arts, project work and mindfulness whilst encouraging plenty of peer led support- we are aiming for a nurturing space with no judgment (both teachers are also therapists).
A Zoom link will be sent to the learner which they can use on a phone/tablet or laptop. All the resources they need will be sent in the post or couriered, including an art pack for the creative workshops. If internet access is an issue, we can provide a dongle.
We have run other courses successfully on line over lockdown so are confident that Mindful Futures will work well in this way too.
Enrollment appointments are available on Friday (11th) and Tuesday (15th) between 10-2- enrollment can be done on line or in person.
Course starts Wednesday 16th September from 9.30am - 2.30pm then every Wednesday for 6 weeks
To be eligible you have to be over 19, live in Merseyside and be unemployed (with the right to work in the UK). Lunch and travel expenses (on public transport) are provided.

Parenting 2000 have a new course starting on Sept 9th called Mindful Futures. It is a six week course taking place online on Wednesdays (9.30-2.30).
We will have 4 cohorts over the course of the 2020/2021 which will always follow school half terms to help those with school-aged children.
The course is for people who would like to gain employment, return to work or are interested in training but are struggling due to having low confidence or feel anxious about making those first steps. Each week we will be looking at how to feel well enough to make that move using a combination of teacher led sessions, creative arts, project work and mindfulness whilst encouraging plenty of peer led support- we are aiming for a nurturing space with no judgment (both teachers are also therapists).
A Zoom link will be sent to the learner which they can use on a phone/tablet or laptop. All the resources they need will be sent in the post or couriered, including an art pack for the creative workshops. If internet access is an issue, we can provide a dongle.
We have run other courses successfully on line over lockdown so are confident that Mindful Futures will work well in this way too.
Enrollment appointments are available on Friday (11th) and Tuesday (15th) between 10-2- enrollment can be done on line or in person.
Course starts Wednesday 16th September from 9.30am - 2.30pm then every Wednesday for 6 weeks
