🌱 Thinking about getting back into work, but not sure where to start?

Perhaps you’ve spent time away from work caring for family, raising children, dealing with changes in your circumstances, or simply taking a different path. Maybe the thought of returning to work feels a little daunting, and you could use a boost.

Time & Talents is developing a brand-new series of FREE workshops to help women take that first step. With friendly and supportive sessions, you will get a chance to build confidence, refresh your skills and reconnect with the world of work, at your own pace.

We’ll explore practical things like:
📄 CVs and applications
💻 Developing digital skills
💼 Understanding the world of work and getting back into employment
💷 Benefits and back-to-work advice
💪 Building confidence and recognising your skills and strengths

But perhaps most importantly, the workshops will provide a safe space to ask questions, share experiences and meet other women who may be on a similar journey.

You don’t need to have everything figured out. You don’t need to be ready to apply for a job tomorrow. This is about taking the first step, building confidence, and knowing that you’re not doing it alone.

👉 Register your interest here: https://ow.ly/8lnO50ZSfhg

At Time & Talents, our vision is to create a place where everyone feels part of a community and no one gets left behind. We believe that feeling connected, supported and part of a community can make all the difference when you’re ready to take your next step.

Your next chapter could start by taking one simple, refreshing step towards. 🌱

💛Sometimes, an hour and a cup of tea can make all the difference.

As we get older, life can change in ways that make staying connected more difficult. Friends or family may move away, health or mobility can make getting out harder, and some people can find themselves spending days without seeing anyone.

That’s where Time & Talents’ Befriending Programme makes such a big difference.

For people aged 60+ who are housebound across Rotherhithe, Bermondsey and Southwark, we carefully match them with a friendly local volunteer who can provide regular companionship. It might be a home visit, a phone call, a cup of tea, a walk, a game of Scrabble – or simply a good old chat.

🎥 Watch our video bellow and on YouTube to hear more about this incredible volunteer service and the difference it can make. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X1VmeNgVZf8&t=3s

Volunteer befriending has been at the heart of Time & Talents for more than 40 years. In 2026, with more people at risk of isolation, we need more local volunteers willing to give a little of their time to make a big difference to someone else’s life.

Our vision is simple: to create a world where everyone feels part of a community, where nobody feels lonely or left behind. If you, or someone you know would like to find out more about our befriending programme, then please get in touch on our website or email [email protected]. 🫶

Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.
