Last week we’re proud to have designed and delivered a bespoke employability programme for a fantastic group of mums ready to return to the workplace.
At , we believe talent doesn’t disappear because someone takes time out to raise a family. What’s often needed is the right space, structured support, and the confidence to step forward again.
We were delighted to work with who we are thankful for the opportunity to design and deliver this programme Mums Moving Forward. Their commitment to supporting parents back into employment made this collaboration particularly meaningful.
Through three day workshops, we worked with motivated, skilled and educated women who are eager to contribute their experience and re-enter employment.
Before the programme began, participants shared that they were struggling with:
• A lack of confidence
• Anxiety around interviews
• Uncertainty about how to explain career gaps
• Feeling disconnected from the labour market
Our bespoke programme was carefully designed to address these barriers. Across the three sessions, we covered:
✔️ Wellbeing and rebuilding confidence
✔️ Identifying and overcoming barriers to employment
✔️ Where to find opportunities and how to approach employers
✔️ Tailoring CVs and cover letters
✔️ Interview preparation and practical techniques
✔️ Speculative approaches and networking
✔️ Volunteering and gaining relevant experience
What made this programme particularly powerful was the peer support within the group. Shared experiences created a safe, encouraging environment where participants could learn from one another and realise they are not alone in their journey.
We are passionate about supporting organisations to unlock overlooked talent pools — including parents returning to work — and creating training that is practical, empowering and results-driven.
If your organisation is looking to support returners, boost employability, or design a bespoke confidence-building programme, we’d love to talk. 😊
