Support to reach your potential
At YMCA Milton Keynes we want to help residents achieve their goals. We want to help young people find sustainable employment in a job that interests and motivates them.
Whether residents are looking for a new career, additional qualifications or an apprenticeship our Employment Coaches are on hand to help.
- Individual sessions to identify training or educational needs or volunteering and employment opportunities and chat about how residents can achieve their career goals.
- Build resident’s confidence and self-esteem through employment sessions such as ‘Becoming Job Ready’, ‘Career Development’ and ‘Employment Skills’ to help with job applications.
- Offer support and advice with CV writing and interview technique.
- Offer resident’s ongoing support once they have a job to offer any advice and support they need.
Planned employment sessions are available on a daily basis and employment coaches and volunteers are always on hand to support residents in a variety of ways.
“Our approach at YMCA MK is different, we want to get to know you and talk about the best way we can support you to achieve your potential. Our support is bespoke and adapted to what you need.”
– Lorraine, Employment Coach
We believe anything is possible with the right support and encouragement. Residents choose the destination, and we will work together to get them there.
