FC United: Helping you get back into work.

FC United: Helping you get back into work.FC United are offering 18-25 year olds who are not currently in education, employment or training an opportunity to get themselves support to get into work.

Are you aged between 18-25 and are not currently in education, employment or training? We can help you get back on track by offering you a 12 week course where you can achieve a nationally recognised qualification.

This FREE 12 week course will see participants commit to 3 hours with FC United learning sports leadership skills, 3 hours with MAD Theatre Company to assist with team work, communication, presentation skills and 3 hours with Collyhurst and Moston Amateur Boxing Club to assist with physical and mental wellbeing and enrichment.

The other 7 hours will be at Broadhurst Park, Moston, where they will work towards a nationally recognised qualification – Open Awards Level 1 in Employability (QCF).

The aim is to start the course in October once we have the required number of participants. All participants will be supported at the end of the 12 week course to identify areas of work, education or training to continue their development.
