Hi all, I just want to say that this looks like an excellent initiative / scheme. Our research on the barriers to employment faced by SVPRS participants in Wales suggests that such a post (or posts) is desperately needed here, too. Well done to the folks at RETAS - perhaps providing a model to emulate elsewhere.
