Colleagues from across Onward met with students at Salford City College to share information about careers in the construction industry at an event on International Women’s Day. The young people heard about our colleagues’ experiences, were provided with career advice and gained an insight into employment opportunities in the sector. 

In Salford, we also supported a free training programme for young people interested in media and podcasting led by The Reporter’s Academy. Awan, who took part, said:  

“It was an amazing opportunity that gave me the chance to explore my creativity and build confidence in a supportive environment. I got to work with professional cameras and equipment, and one of the highlights was getting to interview Olympic athletes.” 

First Kick Foundation, a not-for-profit based in Salford helps young people and adults to develop the confidence and skillset to thrive through a place based, person centred and life enhancing approach. Through a grant from the Onward Community Fund, the Foundation will be delivering a range of free, community-based support services to help local families and individuals build resilience, access healthy meals, receive financial and wellbeing advice, and foster a sense of belonging during what can be a challenging period.

The opening of Birch Lea Park, our specialist housing with care scheme, marks the completion of our 161-home Hattersley Central development. Customers are already settling into their new homes here and Mike told us:  

“We loved Birch Lea Park straight away. It’s magnificent. If we need somebody, we just ring the bell, and somebody will come and help us. Although we’ve not needed them so far, having people available 24-7 just gives us peace of mind.”
