Women’s Work Lab – an award-winning social enterprise – has already supported over 600 women in the Southwest into new roles.
Now they are partnering with BMet in a bid to make an impact in Birmingham.
The launch of the programme takes place on Wednesday 12 November (12pm to 2pm) at a to-be-confirmed Birmingham city centre venue.
Those interested in attending the event should RSVP by 3 November by emailing Kully.Nagra@bmet.ac.uk
This event will introduce the partnership between BMet College and the Women’s Work Lab, funded by the West Midlands Combined Authority and supported by the Rigby Foundation.
Suzie Branch-Haddow, vice principal for External Development at BMet, said: “The WMCA Growth Plan and Get Britain Working strategy both show that women and carers make up the largest group of people who are classified as economically inactive in our region.
“We are committed to helping change that, which is why developing a bespoke programme for mums across the region is such a priority for us and I am delighted that we are partnering with Women’s Work Lab on this tailored and bespoke programme for Birmingham.
“At BMet, we recognise the urgent need to support women into employment by removing any barriers from confidence to childcare to upskilling. This programme is a vital step towards helping mums return to work.”
