    Hi there and welcome to the forum I would recommend that you have a look at the coffee lounge for a general chat or the games den for some fun.

    In terms of looking for work I would recommend that you use Scopes Employability service. Unless you live in the North East of England because I would recommend Hiyed we support people in the workplace I work as a customer service apparentice there.

    Hi. I started at Support-to-Work a couple of weeks ago. My next appointment is tomorrow.

    I would preferably like to work in Animal Care, but I'm also open to other types of work as well, such as Admin/Office Assistant.

    That's great! How is it going so far?

    Working with animals would be incredibly rewarding. Do you have an RSPCA near you? A place like that could be great for you.
