Choiceworks

ChoiceWorks is a programme that aims to help and encourage you to move away from offending and provide you with access to opportunities in education, employment and training.

• One to one support for you
• Provide support and signposting
• Supporting you with issues such as housing, benefits, mental health and more...
• access to funding to develop you

Our programme is suitable for those who:

• Are over the age of 16
• Been involved in offending
• Live within the Glasgow City Council Boundary
• Not currently in Education, Employment or Training

We can also work with those who are employed and have recently been offending and keen to keep their job. We will arrange to meet with you, chat through our programme and the best way to help you move forward.

ChoiceWorks is funded by Glasgow City Council, The Scottish Government and the Shared Prosperity fund.

What support do I receive?

Our friendly staff are there to help you get where you want to be! We will provide support with issues in your personal life (such as housing, drug and alcohol misuse, money worries) as well as addressing your offending behaviour.

Our staff will provide one to one support and when you're ready, work with you to create CV's, apply for jobs or attending training courses.

You will work on our programme at your own pace and be provided with the support needed to succeed!

Benefits to joining ChoiceWorks

Being involved in ChoiceWorks is voluntary. However, if you are currently undertaking a Community Payback Order (CPO), engaging in our programme can possibly count towards your hours.

We will also tailor the support that you require to take part in our programme. This could be, providing you with a travel pass or paying for training and development.

Our team will work with you to ensure you get the support required. Once you are ready, our Employment and Training Advisors can ensure you are supported in applying for jobs or college or explore training placements and volunteering opportunities.
