#returnships | #remote work | virtual #coworking | - a social enterprise solving business and social problems with remote and #flexible working

[myworkhive @myworkhive]

UK gov asks why so many over 50s are 'missing' from the workforce. I talk with folks desperate to work - but struggling because of health conditions, poor transport, or unpaid carer roles. Want them in jobs? We need more v part-time & truly #flexible work. & #remote options too

[myworkhive @myworkhive]

And we need to keep challenging the workplace prejudices vs older workers, part-time workers, people with disability or health conditions, & people with a gap on their CV - all things keeping people out of work, who would love to be earning. 3/3

Also more support & career guidance to help folks build confidence, figure out what they want to do, reskill if needed etc. Rather than current system that pushes folks to spend hours every week firing off job applications for roles that don't fit their lives. 2/3

@DrFitzhugh I'm the opposite! (ie very short) It's always interesting meeting people I've only ever worked with remotely.

1. Seems small. Seems like nothing at all.

It only takes 1 business, 1 opportunity to change the life of 1 young person.

If you are an SME in Suffolk/Norfolk and could host work experience, a taster day or give an industry talk or tour, DM me or 📧 [email protected].

@elnazkashef @pigironjoe Unambitious / content both feel like a good fit? And interesting to understand what areas somebody *is* ambitious about. For example, at times in my life, I've perhaps been unambitious about my career - because I've been very ambitious about protecting time with my family :)

Or, if you are nearer to Ipswich, you can take directly to Anchor - their Ukraine Appeal web page has the number to call to ask when the next drop off time is. There will be one this Thursday 6-8pm. https://t.co/m8shO6NCXS
Thank you - Lucy ENDS

Mid Suffolk friends: I am collecting donated items for Ukraine. If you are nr #Diss #Eye you can drop items at The Beaconsfield Arms in Occold. We will take to @AnchorFreight in Ipswich who are doing amazing work using their lorries to get things where they're needed. 1/3

[myworkhive @myworkhive]

Items needed: warm clothes (especially for children); new toiletries (soap, wipes, toothbrushes), nappies, sanitary items, basic medical kit items, blankets, sleeping bags... 2/3

@CCCSuffolk A massive thank you to @CCCSuffolk and to all your young volunteers who helped put together the laptops! We'll get these out to people who need them. Thank you so much!

This is Lucy from @myworkhive she helps people with disabilities and difficulties find jobs and create small businesses that they run from home.
@CCCSuffolk built her a pile of laptops to help her help them, it was lovely to talk about what we do to make peoples lives better.
