You will meet with your dedicated Key Worker and talk about your personal circumstances, your health conditions or disability, and chat about your hopes for the future. The more your Key Worker knows about you the better support they can provide.

SUCCESS STORIES
Forty-five-year-old Darren is determined to turn his life around. Pivotal to his success in doing this – and in achieving his ultimate goal of gaining custody of his young daughter – is securing permanent employment.
Due to a family rift, Tara left her home in Wales and moved in with her sister in Oldham. Jobless and anxious, the 23-year-old wanted to get her life back on track as soon as possible.
Traumatic experiences in her past had left Christine finding it difficult to trust people. The 60-year-old had been unemployed for 14 months when she was referred to Working Well for tailored support to find a job.
