Frontline charity the Upper Room has been providing meals and services to homeless people in London since 1990 and has traditionally had strong associations with the Polish community in particular. Faced with a dramatic increase in demand for its services as the rate of immigration from eastern Europe increased in recent years, the charity decided to pilot a support scheme to help more clients find the legitimate employment that would provide a more sustainable solution to their needs. The result, UR4Jobs, provides advice and guidance about living and working in the UK alongside volunteering and training opportunities, including free on-site ESOL classes and bi-lingual training in computing, health and safety and food hygiene. The charity has developed links with a range of partners including JobCentre Plus and the Big Issue to help an anticipated 400 beneficiaries this year alone.
