A new project launched to help people over 54 get back into work is already proving a success in the Welshpool area.
Workways+ Powys offers free, tailored and individual support to help people overcome barriers to getting back into work.
This could include mentoring, confidence building, informal help with on-line and traditional job-seeking, interview skills, help with CV writing, sourcing trial work placements, training, or guidance on setting-up in business.
Backed by EU funds, the project is delivered by Powys County Council and PRIME Cymru and is open to individuals across the area who are aged 54 and over and not working.
