Ways to get involved - Proposed merger

Earlier this month, we told you about our plans to form a partnership with Housing Plus Group.

We’d like you to let us know what you think about the proposed merger and importantly, what you think the priorities of the new organisation should be.

Lookout for the survey which will be landing in your inbox, via text or by mail.

You can also share your views on this potential merger with us by:

  • Coming to a drop-in event or one of our community events. (You can check out event dates below)
  • Or emailing getinvolved@wrekin.com

Get that job - free employability support is back!

Wrekin’s ‘Get That Job’ offers workshops to boost confidence for job seekers. We’ll assist with job searches, CV improvement, and job applications, plus provide interview tips.

Sessions are in small, friendly groups, tailored to help you take your next career step.

Participants who complete the program will have the opportunity to gain valuable work experience at The Wrekin Housing Group.

The next sessions are at Dawley Town Hall: 10 - 12 September, 10 am to 12 pm
