A series of outdoor sessions\u202fdesigned to provide people with opportunities to gain\u202fnew skills and to boost wellbeing are available for those living in South Staffordshire.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Building Better Opportunities Stafford and South Staffordshire, which is jointly funded by the European Social Fund and The National Lottery Community Fund, has been delivering their conservation project from its partner base at the stunning Carney Pools near Stafford.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The project focuses on key groups in Stafford and South Staffordshire who typically find they have multiple barriers to overcome when finding suitable employment, such as people over 50, lone parents, or those who experiencing mental ill-health.\u202fThe project tackles barriers that prevent these groups of people from accessing support with opportunities for education and training, improved health and wellbeing services, better financial help and new programmes to build people\u2019s confidence.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0During the course participants are able to take part in various activities outdoors including walks, practical conservation, bush craft, woodcrafts, and planting.\u202fThe conservation course is delivered over\u202feight-weeks to allow participants time to gain confidence, develop new skills and knowledge, and socialise with others in the group.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Maddy (pictured), aged 20, has previously struggled with her confidence and mental health has recently completed the Conservation course.\u00a0 Maddy commented: <\/span>\u201cIt\u2019s been an amazing experience.\u00a0 Louise and Emily have helped to build my confidence.\u00a0 The whole experience has been positive.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
