In the run up to International Women’s day, We are taking part in the “Spin for Smart Works 2020” between 28/02/2020 - 08/03/2020 to raise money for Smart Works Greater Manchester. Collectively, we will be cycling 500 miles (the distance between the eight Smart Work’s centres). We will be hitting the road, gym & several spin classes to achieve this goal and we would really appreciate your support.

The Charity

Smart Works is a UK charity that provides high quality interview clothes and interview training to unemployed women in need. Through the power of clothes and confidence, a woman can be her best at a crucial moment in her life, giving her the confidence, the self-belief and the practical tools required to succeed at interview and transform her life.

Women are referred to Smart Works from organisations such as job centres, work programmes, prisons, care homes, homeless shelters and mental health charities. Half have been unsuccessful in over 20 applications. A third have been turned down from over 50 jobs. All are suffering from a lack of confidence in their own abilities.

The tangible impact that Smart Work’s service has on a woman’s confidence is something unable to be quantified however after the 1-1 coaching, 64% of the clients go on to get the job.

This is a charity close to our hearts and we strongly support the empowerment of women through the workplace. Everybody deserves success, the right to earn a fair living & the chance for independence. Therefore, we sincerely ask for your support in donating what you can to our cause.

Thanks

Sarah, Chelsea, Leticia, Katie & Sarah
