Our BOOST Employment Advisor, Lauren met one lady on a tenancy visit after she had left some difficult family circumstances. She listened to her concerns, built rapport and found something for her that really sparked her interest. She commented, “I feel really excited and nervous about starting my course. I am excited because it means for the first time in a long time I’m doing something for myself. I would really like to work in construction or some kind of demolition. I know its not really a typical job for a woman but that’s why I want to do it to prove to myself what I am capable of. Meeting Lauren gave me the motivation to do something with myself and I feel really grateful for the help.” Boost is a HENNE partnership with Newcastle City Council, Bernicia, North Tyneside Council, Home Group, Karbon Homes, Johnnie Johnson Housing and Tyne Housing. It is funded by North East Combined Authority. North Tyneside Council Housing Employment Network North East (HENNE) The North East Combined Authority #socialhousing #jobhelp #tenancysupport
