Riverside’s employment and training team helped 624 people nationwide into work this year.

With Punjabi her first language, and having recently relocated from India, Gurpreet had no idea how to apply for jobs in this country. 

After being referred to Riverside, she secured a place on a four-day employability course we ran with Asda.

Employment and Training Officer Radthika Kathrani said: “It was great to see her on the last day of the course when the group completed a mock interview given by a member of staff from Asda. She flourished and came out of her shell.” 

Radthika further helped Gurpreet as she successfully applied for a role at Asda, and her confidence is now at an all-time high.
