Garnsychan Partnership's Employability Programme

The Garnsychan Partnership is delivering an ESF and WCVA funded Employability Programme to help people in Torfaen move closer to Employment or training.

We offer work experience placements and voluntary opportunities at one of our social enterprise projects with placement opportunities in areas such as warehousing, furniture restoration and recycling, packing and deliveries, horticulture, retail, marketing, arts and crafts, and admin.

We also provide free accredited training opportunities in areas such as Health and Safety, Customer Service, Confidence Building, Communication, Food Hygiene and more. We are also able to fund people who are interested in studying more specialised subjects.

Garnsychan Partnership understands individual needs, and we can tailor our programme to suit each participant. We will identify any additional support that people may need with disabilities or mental health problems and can support them with CV writing and Job Searching as well as personal presentation skills to help them succeed at interviews. Personal development planning and reviews help to build the confidence of our participants as they realise what they can achieve.

We are located in Garndiffaith and Blaenavon, and this programme is open to unemployed residents of Torfaen who are not on the DWP Work Programme, Work Choice or Working Links.

So whatever your barriers to employment, Garnsychan Partnership is here to help. Contact Amanda on 01495 774453, email amanda@garnsychan.com or visit the Garnsychan Partnership at 55 Stanley Road, Garndiffaith, Pontypool, NP4 7LH
