PEOPLE over the age of 50 who are looking for a new job or to return to work are invited to a tailored careers event in Yate.

The over 50s workshop is aimed at helping older people who are considering starting their own business or a change of direction or those who have been self-employed or out of work for a while because of redundancy or looking after children.

Career experts will be on hand to advise on interview techniques, CV writing and confidence building.

The day is being run in conjunction with South Gloucestershire Council and is open to all residents of the district. It takes place at the Armadillo youth centre in Yate next Wednesday, August 5 (9.30am-4pm).
