National Supported Internship Day (NSID) is a nationwide celebration of supported internships in the UK. It was created and launched in 2023 by our employability partner, DFN Project SEARCH.
Held annually on 27th March, the aim of National Supported Internship Day is to raise awareness of supported internships and the excellent interns whose experiences in workplaces help to inspire confidence, build skills and shape futures!
Following a recent poster campaign organised as part of the Suicide Prevention Under-served Communities group, partners across Denbighshire and the local community came together along to support talented Rhyl artists, Freya Rees, 19 and Kenny Bond, 58. Their artwork formed part of a thought-provoking exhibition of original pieces, designed to inspire conversations around the importance of mental health awareness.
Five families are celebrating moving into new affordable homes developed by social landlord ClwydAlyn at Rhoslan, Anglesey.
Housing association ClwydAlyn has launched a new digital inclusion initiative to assist residents with technology use, ensuring that residents who are keen to increase their digital literacy are able to access relevant support.
Social homes provider ClwydAlyn has partnered with Transport for Wales on a new scheme to install cycle hangar units across several of its residential developments, helping residents to access secure, weather-proof storage for bicycles and other essential items.
Cabinet Secretary for Housing and Local Government Jayne Bryant met with ClwydAlyn’s Head of Development and Growth Penny Storr, to see first-hand how recent Welsh Government Social Housing Grants of over £30 million have shaped the much-needed development of 183 affordable homes in Flintshire.
ClwydAlyn has completed the development of five new homes in Rhoslan, Anglesey, funded by the Welsh Government’s Transitional Accommodation Capital Programme (TACP), which has been designed to deliver good quality, affordable and longer-term housing at pace, for families and individuals in need of homes across Wales.
As the redevelopment of Penrhos Polish Village progresses, confirmation has recently been announced that the scheme, classified as ‘Extra Care Housing’, will offer 24/7 care support, with immediate help on hand, should residents require assistance.
ClwydAlyn’s Capital Works Officer, Angharad Kellett, was recently crowned ‘Apprentice of the Year in Administration and Customer Service’ at Grŵp Llandrillo Menai, North Wales Work-Based Learning Awards Ceremony.
