Having struggled with anxiety and depression, Terri knew that going back into work would help but the coronavirus pandemic descended and it felt like a difficult time to be looking for work. Having been unemployed for 6 months, Terri wanted a small part time job to ease back into the workplace having previously been made redundant after 20 years in the same job.
My key worker at I CAN Work helped me to do a more targeted CV for the roles I was applying. I had applied for the same job twice before but without success. I honestly believe the more targeted CV helped me secure the role.
Terri was a little anxious about managing back in work but was reassured that his key worker was at the end of a phone and would be checking in regularly to provide continued support.
The job has given me purpose and it feels good to be earning my own money. My self-esteem is better most days although I still have my down days. I feel without help I wouldn’t have gone into work and can’t thank you enough for all the help I CAN Work has given me.
