Shows how transferable skills can lead to new opportunities. Describes how an adviser helped a former NHS employee find work which was less demanding but that enabled her to continue contributing to society.

About this guide
Our focus is on the 50+ jobseeker because the success rate of back to work support with this age group has not been as good as with other ages.
Of course, this is not always the case. There are success stories where helpful support has made the difference to someone's life.
This is where you come in. It is why your job is so important.
