How we support
At More Positive Together we start with you and tailor our help to suit you personally
How we can support you….
Here at More Positive Together we can help you get closer to work by using our person centred approach and tailored individual support plan. When we receive a referral, the team will get in touch with you and ask for the following information:
- Proof of eligibility to work in the UK (preferably a Passport or Birth Certificate)
- Evidence of any claimed benefits
Once your eligibility has been confirmed, we then:
- Do an assessment of needs to identify the type of support required, the barriers to employment and the establishment of regular 1:1 mentoring sessions with one of our specialist MPT mentors
- Identify appropriate interventions and working with you, develop a personalised action plan to map out your MPT journey
The type of tailored interventions you will be able to access could include:
Taster sessions / Sport and physical activities / Environmental skills / Training workshops / Volunteering opportunities / Vocational training / Work experience placements / IT, numeracy and literacy support / Traineeships / pre-employment support (CV’s, Interview workshops, help with applications)
Our one to one support for you focuses on four key areas: health and wellbeing, support into work, and leisure and environment, and skills and training.
How to sign up
