Harc Partnership - Phillip
Who They Are
Phillip is a young man working in HARC charity shop. Prior to working with HARC, Phillip had faced certain challenges entering the world of work or further education without any qualifications. During his 6 months’ work experience in-store, it was clear to colleagues, that he excelled in numeracy and IT.
What they needed
Philips aim was to gain a Level 2 Customer Service Qualification.
How we helped
Without the support from the Foundation, HARC would not have been able to employ Philip for the number of hours required to gain a full apprenticeship, meaning he wouldn’t have the opportunity to gain a qualification. We agreed to pay his wages and associated costs whilst he completes the qualification that requires 24 hours a week work in store.
By supporting HARC through funding Philips salary, it enables him to gain valuable on the job experience, whilst also supporting the charity he works for. Philip will learn key skills that will kick start his career. This combined with a qualification will allow him to either; enter further education or kick start his working career.
