Victoria Clarke, Employment Partnership Coordinator for the Northumberland Employment Partnership, said: “Prudhoe Jobs Fair provides connections - a chance to talk to employers about paving sustainable and fulfilling career paths. 
 

“However, it's so much more than a jobs fair, and a team of experts will be on hand to provide additional support. 
 

“Being in a sustainable, quality job directly impacts on all aspects of an individual’s health, from financial to mental wellbeing.  
 

“Prudhoe Jobs Fair sheds a light on opportunities around the county and provides direct access to support, helping residents take steps toward happier, healthier lives.” 
 

The council is committed to helping signpost residents into satisfying employment and learning pathways. 
 

The Work Smart Live Well service is on hand every Tuesday at Cramlington Hub, 9.30am - 1pm. 
 

Each week a rota of organisations from across the region are located at the hub, offering locals free career advice, skills building, wellbeing support and much more.
