The Build Project
Verified service

BUILD is a free project from Voluntary Action LeicesterShire (VAL) that helps individuals overcome barriers to education, training, and employment.

We offer personal coaching sessions in your local area to help you build confidence, develop new skills, and gain valuable experience. Our friendly team will work with you to:

  • Boost your confidence and motivation
  • Support you in creating or updating your CV
  • Help you complete job searches and applications
  • Guide you through retraining or accessing further education
  • Explore volunteering opportunities
  • Support your journey into self-employment

Who can benefit?

  • Anyone looking for help to gain employment
  • Individuals who want to retrain or access further education
  • People interested in volunteering or self-employment

How does it work?

  • Personal coaching sessions are delivered locally in Bagworth, Markfield, Ratby, Ibstock, Measham, Nailstone, Mountsorrel, Thurmaston, Sileby, and surrounding villages.
  • Individuals can self-refer to the BUILD project.
  • VCSE organisations and education providers can refer people aged 19+ (no upper age limit).

Get involved! If you want to enrol, refer someone, or find out more, contact us today. We also welcome VCSE groups who want to advertise BUILD or have volunteering roles to fill.
