Announced earlier this year, the Kickstart Scheme is a £2 billion investment by the government to create job placements for 16 to 24 year olds.
Businesses are now able to sign up to be part of the landmark scheme, aimed at giving young people a future of opportunity and hope by creating high-quality, government-subsidised jobs across the UK.
Association of Charitable Organisations is raising awareness of grant-giving charities that can provide assistance to people who need support, in anticipation of more redundancies as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the government’s Job Retention Scheme ending. The Here to Help Campaign (#HeretoHelpAlways) will be working with key advice and referral agencies, charities and other organisations that work closely with people who may be in need of assistance, along with the media, to raise awareness of the services available from grant-giving charities.

The world have been forced into hitting the pause button on critical workplace learning due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. To continue developing your team within these uncertain times, a strategic training plan with alternative methods must be explored.

Unfortunately, further to the recent ‘Rule of 6’ government restrictions on numbers allowed to attend social gatherings, we are suspending our original plans to restart in-person Elders Tea Club meetings at the Masbro in October and will re-evaluate how we proceed following further clarification of the government guidelines, paying particular care to the guidance for older people. So please watch this space and we hope to have further in-person news shortly!
Every 3rd Saturday of the month at 2.30pm we will release an online session with fun, hands-on, creative maths activities for families to follow. In our first monthly Maths on Toast Stay-In video session we’ll be showing how to make your own pair of ‘maths glasses’ and exploring the idea to help us see the maths all around us in our everyday lives!
Join us for our first family maths stay-in session at 2.30pm on Saturday 19th September. It will go ‘live’ at 2.30pm on our website, YouTube channel and Facebook page: https://www.mathsontoast.org.uk/stay-in-sessions/ Maths on Toast staff will be on hand via our Facebook page to answer any questions as you are watching – find us on social media @mathsontoast. Don’t worry if you’re not able to watch along during the live session – the videos will remain up on our website and Facebook page so you can watch them at a later time or date that suits you. Families can check our webpage in advance, for any accompanying PDFs or suggested resources to help with the activity.
Look out for further Maths on Toast Stay-In Sessions on Saturdays 17th October, 21st November and Saturday tbc in December. We always love to hear how you’ve got on, so don’t forget to share your creations or comments on social media tagging @mathsontoast or email info@mathsontoast.org.uk
