We would like to tell you about Doing Good Business, a Sheffield City Region programme funded by the Big Lottery Fund and the European Social Fund. The two-year initiative focuses on community engagement, mentoring and coaching support. Participants aged 25 – 60, will be involved in activities to build confidence and establish entrepreneurial skills, as well as progressing in to further education. In Sheffield City Region, the rate of unemployment is 6.2%, which is above the national average for Great Britain (5.1%).
Doing Good Business can help people to make steps towards gaining employment, through one-to-one coaching support which is tailored to suit their lives. The programme is targeted at unemployed and economically inactive people who are possibly some way away from the workplace, but who have aspirations to get back to work.
