Do you live in West Cumbria?
Are you currently unemployed and would like to return to work or explore self employment?
We’re excited to share details of our fully funded Thriving Women project through Copeland Community Fund to support women+ in West Cumbria who are currently out of employment.
This isn’t your typical training or personal development course. There are no PowerPoint presentations or whiteboards, just a warm, welcoming, and fun space where participants can explore what they truly want from their working life.
Over three group sessions and additional 1:1 coaching, participants will use practical tools and guided exercises to build self-belief, confidence, and personal power, helping them stay resilient as they take steps toward employment or self-employment.
It’s a supportive circle of women+ who uplift, encourage, and celebrate one another every step of the way, in a space that is fully neurodivergent- and LGBTQ+ inclusive.
Program Details:
* Dates: 3 group sessions, 10am–3pm, April 14-16th
* Location: Phoenix Enterprise Centre, Cleator Moor
* Extras: Opportunity for 3 x 1:1 coaching sessions and a graduation empowerment event (date TBC)
