New grant supports jobseekers at Employment Hub

18th Feb 2022

Jobseekers attending our Employment Hubs are set to benefit from a £3,000 Newcastle Building Society grant which will be covering clothing and transport costs for interviews, assisting with skills training, managing digital inclusion needs and paying for refreshments at each of its hubs.

The six Employment Hubs operate across the rural parts of the county, from Haltwhistle, Hexham and Prudhoe in the west across to Morpeth, Amble and Alnwick, and deliver a wide range of employability support at each one to help local people overcome the different barriers they may be facing in terms of getting into work. We operate the Hubs alongside the Bridge Northumberland partnership to support local residents into work or training.
