Getting you into work

Edition: Summer 2022

We run three popular employment support services to help people in Horsham District to find jobs.

WISH 50+

We have recently launched our new employability support hub for local people who are aged over 50. Based in Lavinia House (behind the Drill Hall on Denne Road) in Horsham, WISH 50+ provides weekly sessions on many different topics, which help people back into work or on the road to getting back into employment or volunteering. We have access to local recruiters and vacancies, and can help prepare you for opportunities you might be interested in.

The sessions, running between12noon and 3pm, are group-based and cover topics such as career planning, making job applications, preparing for interviews, and dealing with work challenges.
