A day in the life...

Maxine had been unemployed for approximately six to eight months. She faced numerous barriers but has overcome every one to return to employment.

Mum of two, Maxine had recently separated from her husband when she came to Working Links. She had had to leave her previous employment due to an injury sustained at work that had caused damage to her shoulder and back. When she came to Working Links, she wanted to change the direction of her career. She had previously been a head waitress and she wanted something that gave her the chance to progress and allow her to use her communication skills. Maxine had no driving licence and so had to rely on public transport.
