<h1>W﻿hat is Pathways?</h1><p>Pathways has been designed to give people the space to reflect on their life, their strengths and their goals. Activities are fun and interactive, helping participants think deeply about what they enjoy and want to do. The materials challenge  the negative stories we often tell ourselves, whilst recognising the practical obstacles we need to overcome to achieve our goals. Pathways draws inspiration from all aspects of people&#x27;s life - including parenting, life&#x27;s ups and downs, caring responsibilities and different lived experiences.</p><p>Funded by <em>North East London Health and Care Partnership</em> and in collaboration with <em>Mary Ward</em>,  participants will have lots of next steps to choose from in their local area.</p><h1>What does the programme cover?</h1><p><strong>10am-12.15pm : Find Your Work Strengths</strong></p><p>Through engaging and interactive activities, you will identify both your strengths and the skills which give you energy and purpose. By focusing on these strengths and skills, participants will gain clarity on their next steps.</p><p>&#x27;Finding your work strengths&#x27; invites you to reflect on your whole self and the skills you&#x27;ve gained not just from work, but from all aspects of life. This reflection is a positive one and reframes the failures and obstacles we often face.</p><p><strong>1﻿2.15pm-1.00pm: </strong>FREE LUNCH PROVIDED</p><p><strong>1.00pm-2.30pm : Moving Forward</strong></p><p>After identifying your work strengths, &#x27;moving forward&#x27; gives you the tools to plan out your next steps.
