People 1st have been advised by the Department for Economy and Department for Communities to cease the delivery of face to face training for Training for Success Apprenticeships, Steps to Success, LEMIS Plus and Community Family Support Programme from close of business on 20/03/2020
As a result of this directive our centres will be closed and staff will move to remote working for the foreseeable future. The decision, which has been taken in light of the latest UK Government advice, is driven by the overriding need to help protect the safety and wellbeing of our students and our staff. All our staff are fully contactable via their emails and mobile phones plus have the facility to dial into conference calls or video conferencing, our usual land line numbers remain operational and have been diverted to mobiles.
This announcement means that, as of Monday, 23 March 2020 at 1pm:
Training for Success

LEMIS + and Community Family Support
Steps to Work
Staff will be available on their usual emails and telephone numbers, or alternatively please contact us via Facebook or people@people-1st.co.uk and we will refer your message to the most appropriate person.
We regret the disruption to your learning and will endeavour to continue to support you remotely during this period.
