Description

The Birmingham Womens and Childrens NHS Foundation Trusts Aspire Academy has been recognized for its Mentoring Circle scheme, a collaborative effort with the Department of Work and Pensions. This program offers crucial advice and support to job seekers, helping them navigate the path to employment. The scheme provides mentoring, job vacancies, and guidance on job searching, interview techniques, and application processes. The Trusts People Partnerships and Programmes Manager, Lawrence Kelly, expressed his honor for the team and their DWP partners in receiving this award. The Aspire Academy was also shortlisted for the Universal Family Programme, which supports care leavers, and received high commendation from the judges. Fatima Whitbread, a former Olympian and reality TV star, has transformed this program into one of her campaigns Action Hubs, dedicated to supporting young people transitioning out of the care system within local communities.
