RICK'S STORY
Rick was in and out of zero hour
employment, not knowing how
much he'd be paid from one month
to the next.
Our Social Impact Team got involved to
help Rick. They helped him improve his
confidence and overcome barriers to
achieving his career aspirations.
They felt volunteering would get Rick
vital experience of working as part of a
team, problem solving and growing his
skill set.
Rick then applied for a volunteering
position at Optivo, to work with the
Lettings team. After a successful
interview Rick was offered the role.
Sharon Roberts, Lettings Manager at
Optivo, said: "Rick is getting on very well.
He has fitted in and become part of the
Lettings team. He is very willing to learn
and take on new work the team sets."
