self employment and those already in business. SWEDA’s
main target groups are women who are lone parents, on low incomes,
women from minority ethnic communities, and those from socially
excluded groups. |
SWEDA’s unique selling point is its approach to its clients.
This translates into warm friendly
environment and on going long term support.
This assistance and support enables and empowers its clients
to start and manage their businesses and to access jobs, training
and further education. The agency has been working with partner
organisations to improve the participation of women in the labour
market, improve access to learning employment and self-employment
by targeting the most disadvantaged women. |
The agencies service
provision tackles the barriers faced by many women when wishing
to access jobs, training, education and self-employment by providing
quality tailored support to meet the specific needs of the clients.
