As stated in last year's report the organisations, the employers and partners we were working with on the ILM and
Inclusion & Progression project adapted the deliver to ensure that the delivery of the programme was not impacted due
to the pandemic. Unfortunately the ILM project came to an end in July 2021. Partner organisations and ourselves were
disappointed when Alt Valley informed us that they would not be going for an extension on the project. The project
really gave young people the opportunity to find their feet in an employment setting, access training to support their
knowledge and skill set and also helped them gain first-hand experience of working life for a 26-week period. The
opportunity of the ILM programme gave the candidates a chance to build up their CV's and also helped to develop their
soft skills such as confidence building, motivation, communication skills, work ethic, skills which they might have not
developed before due to lack of experience. The candidates received training to assist them in applying for full time
employment. NLRCo maintained the 95% success rate till the end of the project, and we would like to thank all of the
organisations/companies which we have worked with over the ILM project for making it such a successful programme.
