A JOB finding service for people in Ferryhill Station has been launched by JobCentre Plus, in partnership with Sedgefield Borough Council and the Mainsforth Institute.
Joanne Mounter and Stephen Wall are in the institute on Tuesdays, from 10am to 2pm, offering support to help people get back to work.
They can help with job searches, writing applications, updating CVs and preparing for interviews.
Funding is available towards cost of clothing, tools and equipment, and stamps and envelopes. A similar service has proved successful in Shildon and Cornforth.
Joanne Mounter said: "Once someone has found a job, we can provide support to bridge the gap between coming off benefits and receiving the first wage packet."
For more details telephone (01740) 652461.
