Description

The Poppy Factory’s expert and well established employability team is there to help unemployed Armed Forces veterans with physical and mental health conditions back into sustainable and rewarding employment throughout England, Wales and Northern Ireland.

Working with the personal needs and career goals of wounded, injured and sick veterans we provide local 1-2-1 expert career advice and guidance; local job searches and links to employers in local area, CV reviews and interview coaching, plus ongoing in-work support once veterans start in a new job. As part of the process we also provide information on available funding and training resources accessible through our charity partners across the sector.

Physical or mental health conditions do not have to be attributed to service. Those in receipt of CTP Assistance may be ineligible for support but please call us to discuss.

We support the following Drop-Ins:
