Care and support

Looking for help getting a job?

Research shows a carer’s confidence can be affected by time away from a paid job, and by the isolation of their caring role. Here are some places you can go for help and advice if you are interested in returning to work:

Nextstep: If you don’t have many qualifications and are aged 20 or over, then this Hertfordshire service can give you free information and advice on training, courses, learning and jobs.

Jobcentre Plus: can help you in looking for work, including the 'ready for work' and 'Jobseeker direct' schemes.
