Training and building project opportunities

[Community Building]

We are a Social Enterprise based in Trafford Park, and we are currently in a position to offer free places on our building skills training programme with the help of Trafford Council. We offer a combination of vocational training and work experience which is both unique and revolutionary. Participants can complete a four week course which will provide experience of all areas of building including tiling, bricklaying, plastering and joinery.

We work with the local community to complete building projects, which provides participants with valuable work experience. It will allow community groups to complete building projects more cost effectively and allow participants to make a sustained contribution to the local community.

We will ask participants to agree to attend for three days each week, but they can arrange which days are suitable, and they can also arrange start and finish times to ensure the programme is accessible. It will be possible to continue to claim benefits during the course.
