In these challenging times, we understand that some people may have lost their jobs during this period and this may lead to many additional pressures including financial and health. Back in 2009, just after the financial crash of 2008, business matters pulled together a programme of seminars under the banner “New Futures Group”.
These were designed to help those who might find themselves out of work or rethinking their options going forward.
Some of that material is still relevant today and can be accessed below…
