New employment programme developed by women's charity to help women into work

The programme has been developed by Bright Futures Young Women’s Project, an award-winning charity in South Shields which provides girls and women aged 16-25 with tools and resources to create a brighter future for themselves.

The programme provides young women aged 16-25 with the opportunity to develop their employability skills and boost their confidence.

Bright Futures new employment programme takes a holistic and tailored approach to meet the needs of each young woman completing the programme. The programme provides comprehensive support to young women to develop their confidence, self-esteem both personally and professionally.

The programme will also help the young women with CV writing providing the skills and resources to sustain the ability to write CV’s during the programme and beyond. The young women will receive help looking for work, preparing for interviews and fully funded training opportunities to further increase their skills and capabilities.

Bright Futures employment programme will empower young women encouraging and guiding them to succeed and achieve their aspirations in their future careers.
