Christians Against Poverty (CAP)

January 23, 2024

CAP is running their first Steps to Employment course of the year commencing 31st January – the course runs over 6 sessions in Kirkintilloch Baptist Church each Wednesday 10am-12pm.

Perhaps someone you know may have been out of work for some time, perhaps recently unemployed or out of the workforce with caring responsibilities for some time – then this course could be perfect for them.

Is this course different? Well we do focus on CV’s, applications and interview readiness but perhaps more importantly we spend time thinking about:

– Motivations and barriers to work

– Finding (or perhaps rediscovering) strengths, skills and experiences

– Encouraging everyone that they are unique, special and valued by God

Christians Against Poverty

October 20, 2023

(CAP) is running their winter Steps to Employment course commencing 1st November – the course runs over 6 sessions each Wednesday 10am-12pm.

Perhaps someone you know may have been out of work for some time, perhaps recently unemployed or out of the workforce with caring responsibilities for some time – then this course could be perfect for them.

The course is called Steps to Employment for good reason:

– for some attendees a perfect outcome will be a job – this has thankfully happened on quite a few occasions

– for some it may be taking on voluntary work

– for some it may be leaving with a new found sense of value and purpose
