Support Services

Many of the support services on the List of Local Support Agencies provide employment advice and support.

For further advice surrounding careers, please visit the National Careers Service website. It is also possible to speak to a careers advisor for free on 0800 100 900.

Good Work App

Just Good Work is a free interactive mobile app to help workers to see what employment conditions should be in the UK, how to raise issues, recruitment information (i.e. what documents are required), and assistance in planning their journeys to work.

The information is available in several languages.

The aim is that the app will support workers who could be vulnerable to exploitation and ensuring that they have access to information about their rights as a worker in the UK.

Volunteering

Volunteering is a fantastic way to gain work experience as well as meet new people and learn English.

Keep a lookout for volunteering opportunities at OCVA.
