About our new job group
Getting there
Been made redundant?
Have you been unemployed for a while?
Are you trying to change career?
Or do you want to get back into work after raising a family?
Whatever your reason for job-hunting, you could find our new group very useful.
The idea of IntoWork is to provide local job hunters with some positive help and support. Just what that help might be, depends on what you and others in the community need.
For example, maybe you need help with writing and formatting your CV, or preparing for a job interview, or getting ideas about searching for jobs. Or maybe you'd just like to chat with other people who are also job-hunting and give each other some encouragement.
Whatever your job-hunting needs, we'll try to help by finding people with specialist knowledge, and providing a friendly place to meet.
Who is it for?
Anyone who needs help with job-hunting, or to move their career forward.
We're also looking for people who can help others with their job-hunting. So, if you have special knowledge about any aspects of careers, training or job-hunting please come along to our meetings or email us (address at the bottom of this page).

Free life and career coaching
Coaching is about helping you achieve your goals. Working with a coach, you plan the action you need to take in order to reach your goal. Coaching is becoming very popular around the world and is used extensively in commerce and industry - many famous businessmen have life coaches.
Now it can be your turn because we have two professionally-trained coaches - Peter Brown and Alistair Miller - who can offer free life and career coaching.
