Learn to Earn

I had a very good conversation with Dawn Cunningham from Learn to Earn yesterday. She is really excited about the prospect of beginning a six week programme of helping people who are on incapacity benefit, income support or severe disablement allowance with:
  • relaxation
  • coping with stress
  • confidence building
  • exploring returning to learning or work
She was really pleased to see the facilities at the Barnabas Centre, and I'm delighted that this morning we were able to finalise the dates of the sessions. They will be on Tuesday afternoons, for six weeks beginning on 20 February 2007. The exact time is to be confirmed, once they know what the participants preferences are.
