Mark’s visit gave the charity the opportunity to share their ambitious plans for the future, alongside a discussion of how the lack of flexible working opportunities in Milton Keynes is impacting upon local employment opportunities.
During his visit, Mark met with clients, volunteers and staff to understand how the charity supports local people improve their lives and employment prospects.
Mark said: “Meeting the team and those who they support, only endorsed my admiration for their tenacity to continue offering training, guidance and most importantly confidence to those wanting to find employment, despite all the challenges they have faced over the past 40 years.”
