Our Progression Support programme helps those engaged with our Creative Health activities, to use their increased wellbeing, confidence, and skills as a springboard into work, education, volunteering, or increased community activity. The majority of our services remain free at point of access though eligibility criteria may apply.
Support typically involves regular 1-1 meetings with an Orb Keyworker alongside group development sessions. Support can include:
- Support to access and engage with Orb’s Creative Programme
- Exploring opportunities for increased community activity, volunteering, education, and paid employment
- Referral, signposting, and brokered engagement to access opportunities or other services
- Practical support with CV writing, job search, and interview skills
- 1-1 and group activities in life skills and self-care
- Practical support with key competencies including numeracy, literacy, and digital skills
- Practical support to overcome barriers to progression
- In-work pastoral support to maintain employment
