**IMPACTFUL PARENTS**
Impactful Parents is a creative employability programme that’s open to unemployed and economically inactive parents who live in East Lothian. Something special for parents who do not feel they are ready to enter employment.
Sessions will run on Thursdays, 10am-1pm, starting Thu 17th Sep. The sessions will run in The Fraser Centre, 3a Winton Place, Tranent, EH33 1AF. The course will run for 12 weeks, finishing on Thu 10th Dec.
At the weekly sessions, participants will have fun trying new artistic activities, and they will also receive 1-1 support and guidance to work towards next steps in their career paths. We can help identify job opportunities, support with college applications, help with research into training programmes, and more.
One of the main positive aspects of the programme is that participants will meet like-minded people, build their social connections, and build their confidence and employability skills. As this is a programme for parents to focus on themselves, we ask that no children are brought to the sessions.
The programme is free to attend, and Impact Arts will provide reimbursement for travel expenses. Refreshments will also be available.
