About the service

Nacro Longton Entry into Employment Project helps offenders, ex-offenders and those at risk of offending by enabling them to access the education, skills, qualifications and support they need.

• job-search programmes

What will I get out of it?

• Qualifications in health and safety, bicycle maintenance and sports leadership
• City and Guilds literacy and numeracy qualifications
• Support to increase your employability and basic skills and help your career development
