About this programme

Our Confidence to Competence (C2C) programme is a safe, supportive programme that helps women practise skills and build competence through practical learning activities, delivered in person or online.

This is not a job, not unpaid work, and not a work placement.

It is a learning and confidence-building experience, focused on competence, wellbeing, and readiness for future opportunities.

Participants choose activities at their own pace, supported by experienced staff in a psychologically safe environment.

• Have experienced career disruption, caring responsibilities, health challenges, or long gaps

• Prefer flexible access, either in person or online

Participation is voluntary, respectful, and tailored to individual needs.
