Do you want to know what it’s like to work at Riverside? Well why not have a look at what Our People have to say?

“This wouldn’t have been a role I could step straight into without an apprenticeship route, there is so much knowledge, regulations, compliance, and general professional skills that I have learned along the way. I can’t wait to expand all of this in my career at Riverside.”

Joshua Pike
Health, Safety and Environment Apprentice

“The knowledge I’ve gained over the past few years is endless to list. I’ve gone from knowing nothing at all to being able to confidently install and test electrical installation, to a high standard of workmanship.”

“I think the biggest benefit for me is that it has helped me with my confidence and knowledge of the role. It has made me think outside the box and has helped me when putting what I have learnt into practice. ”

Rizwana Kauser
Relief Worker

“…that opportunity literally changed my life. I secured my place on the Mental Health Nursing course partly based upon my professional experience and everything I have learnt along the way since starting as a GROW Trainee. I am a positive role model to my three children and to all individuals living in supported accommodation.”
