EMWE Project
The EMWE Project (Ethnic Minority Women’s Employment Project) has been running successfully for over three years. We provide programs and services for disadvantaged BME women in the Rochdale borough. The aim of this project is to provide opportunities in training, employment and education and to serve as a resource to advocate, educate and address the social disparities that impact BME women.
EMWE assists women in taking the simple steps to work. As well as one-to-one advice and support, we provide individual and group employment counselling to assist clients with their job search and career planning.
As Employment Advisors we provide information and guidance on educational, training, employment and welfare resources and motivate and encourage women with the providsion of follow up support.
