Doubling Supported Internship Opportunities for Young People!
We are excited to announce that we've successfully hit the government target to double the number of internships available to young people and we plan to offer even more opportunities next year! Last year, we supported 15 interns who completed our internship programme, and this year, 34 young people have embarked on their journey with our Route to Recruit Supported Internship Programme.
We want to extend a massive ‘Good Luck’ to all the young people who have just starting on our Supported Internship programme – more news on their progress to come later and a huge thank you to all the employers we work with, who are just as passionate as us, at ‘Changing Lives, One Job at a Time.’

Ways Into Work was a part of the recent CVS Slough event at Singh Sabha, where our colleague Rahma and Monica joined other incredible organisations, all working towards one shared goal: improving the wellbeing of our community. 🤝 A huge congratulations to Asma Aziz on her appointment as Chief Executive Officer of CVS Slough! Her inspiring leadership brought the event together, highlighting the power of unity and collaboration. From meaningful discussions to a fun and thoughtful quiz session, we were able to share ideas, listen, and learn from others including Turning Point, Frimley Health, Youth Parliament, and many more. It was truly energising to see how aligned we all are in our missions.💙
It was great to get a chance to talk to Tan Dhesi MP – Member of Parliament for Slough, on his recent visit to The Curve. He was very interested in the work we do and the positive impact it has supporting people with barriers to employment, into paid work. Our Charity successfully works with those most affected not only helping to ‘Get Britain Working’ but also meeting our mission of ‘Changing Lives One Job at a Time’. We look forward to continuing the dialogue with him to further benefit residents of Slough.
