Clean Slate Training & Employment - Bristol

Somerset

Project starts: 21 January 2025

We are a social enterprise that helps people in hardship by providing comprehensive money skills training and support for those on low incomes who want to be more than just better off. We are complemented by Quids in!, our money guidance initiative, which offers a range of in-person and online services as well as digital resources.

We offer free employment and money skills workshops, one-to-one money coaching, drop-in services, and virtual support (via phone and video call). Clients who complete our six-week one-to-one support see average financial gains of £1,328. Quids in! also produces a quarterly magazine, various guides, and a monthly e-newsletter, together reaching 175,000 people with vital money advice.

We prioritise recruiting from the communities we serve. Participants in our '7 Signs' employment training, which helps jobseekers identify their skills and passions, can be selected for Clean Slate's Elements Peer Support Programme. This 12-week placement offers training, mentorship, and paid work experience, helping individuals turn life experiences into valuable employment skills. Half of Clean Slate’s Team Leads have come through the Elements programme. By recruiting locally, we honour our Promise to those on low incomes: We see you. We hear you. We are you.

Professionals eager to support our mission to tackle hardship can join our newsletter, Quids in! Pro. It offers news, training and thought leadership, drawing on over 16 years of experience providing support, and accessible materials for low-income households.
