For over 12 months Nottingham City Council, through its Jobs Plan, has been supporting over 2000 citizens to find work or appropriate training to help them develop new skills.

Come and meet us in your neighbourhood!

Now, Nottingham City Council and Jobcentre Plus, with funding from One Nottingham, have teamed up to Get Nottingham Working. Building on the success of the council's Jobs Plan we will be creating more opportunities for you to access employment and training, while giving you the advice and help you need to get your career back on track.

You can come and talk to specially trained advisors and visit us as we travel around the city in our information bus.

Get Nottingham Working is all about making sure that you know what opportunities are out there. We want to give those of you who are unemployed a fresh start and renewed confidence in finding the right job, relevant training and sound advice.

Please look out for our Jobs Fair on Thursday 23 September 2010 at the Albert Hall, Nottingham.
