Morecambe training company reaches out to '˜lost army'
The company is reaching out to those who may not be aware of the opportunities for learning under government funding.
Those aged over 19, who have not previously attained a GCSE Grade C, or higher, will be fully funded if they study for a qualification in English or maths up to and including level 2.

Hide AdRestrictions facing the unemployed may include living with a partner that works full time, access to available information and opportunities locally.
Gaining support due to being unemployed is often restricted.
Many factors can influence these restrictions such as being unemployed but living with a partner that works full time.
Supported by the government, PHX is keen to support the ‘forgotten workforce’ by offering level 2 courses to those unemployed, not just those claiming benefits.
