Additional Information

We are a small but tenacious organization who are passionate about the work we do.  We are currently looking for partnerships for a exciting Pilot Project we have developed.  Any and all help with Marketing (as we are simply rubbish at selling ourselves) would be so very appreciated!  Here's an overview of our pilot project: Pilot Project Overview Provide service users and newly housed people with accredited Interior Design Training and real, hands on work experience, by providing interior design consultation to newly housed people.  This would give students a chance to learn essential on the job skills and a foundation to use their newly learnt design skills.  Work experience gives students knowledge such as communication, negotiation, professional conduct, as well as building self-esteem and confidence.  We also believe that a newly designed home will provide a stronghold for people to sustain and maintain their tenancies; pride in the home leads to a better quality of life and renewed relationships.  If we invest in ourselves and build upon our skills and then use them to do good for others we feel better and so the cycle flows.  By providing people a place to learn and then an opportunity to use those skills for someone else’s benefit, is a win, win all around, and that is what it’s all about!
