Pipeline Stages
Target Groups

People who have been long term unemployed including those with issues with drugs and alcohol

​

Opportunities are offered for volunteering, placement and employment.

 

The business has two main operations:

  • Staran Transport which operates community transport services and an MOT garage. Opportunities exist for mechanical training.

  • Grass cutting and amenities services.

 

Though there are opportunities for volunteering and most people initially engage with the business as volunteers, the focus is on moving people into employment and developing skills which will enable people to function in a work environment.

 

Many volunteers are retained as employees.

 

Services are not specifically for young people in the 16-24 years category but many of the clients are in this age group
