Last year we supported 52% of our students into employment, with a further 24% seeking employment 🎉
Our key message to employers is: we encourage you not to overlook the contribution and value that our Clink graduates can make to your business 🤝
Last week, Steve, our Clink Gardens Lead Trainer, attended the @the_RHS Wisley Community Forum 🥕
By showcasing what we do, he made many new connections with garden charities and other community groups across Surrey!

Have you heard about our award-winning Clink Gardens projects?
