Women ....more With our experience of working with disadvantaged and socially excluded we have found the three objectives are interlinked and our project has the capacity to cut across the three objectives. Women and girls who have been socially isolated because they have had caring responsibilities or health issues have lost their confidence. increased health issues and lost contact with previous social circles they were involved in. The project will offer XX participants the opportunity to build skills base by delivering at least one short interactive training course where participants will build their confidence as 100% have capacity to gain a formal qualification for the short course. As attendance and achievements grow the health and well being will improve for individuals and FRCI will provide Happy Healthy Me workshops to support individuals to look after their own health and well being. Individuals will have new goals and will develop techniques to manage health and well being to help achieve these goals. Bringing the group together for training provision is developing a whole new social group and from our experience in delivering training many new friendships and social gatherings have developed from this. Individuals also have the capacity to bring their new found skills back into their own communities and develop ideas at a local level through the concept of volunteering. Having a platform to allow women and girls to integrate with society again can only be positive for the individuals and their families. There is also the potential of signposting services so participants can have the opportunity to continue their development journey and ultimately progress to employment.
