Fresh Steps – for a new age and a new stage
Not every career runs forever. Career breaks happen, parents take time out to look after children or to be carers, while life after redundancy is also becoming more common.
Most of us who have been in work for some years find ourselves living with the consequences of decisions we may have made many years ago. However, our circumstances many now have changed and our work and personal goals may need to change as well.
Fresh Steps is an innovative personal and work development programme which enables people to review their professional progress, reassess their priorities and direction and to set and achieve new personal and work goals.

A fantastic course, well presented, life changing and enjoyable.
Lancashire Constabulary
Was a very enjoyable, life learning experience, which has made me realise I’ve a lot more to offer and I’m not over the hill and ready for the scrap heap!
Tracey Finn, Police Constable Management support, Lancashire Constabulary
A refreshing change to concentrate on yourself. A chance to be ‘selfish’ in the nicest possible way. To take stock of your life, to feel refreshed and ready to go. A practical guide to ‘me and my future’.
Gill Charlesworth, Walsall MBC
Fresh Steps has helped me out of a rut. I felt very negative and undervalued as a long term employee. Fresh Steps has made me see I still have a lot to offer.
Lesley Edwards, Walsall MBC
I have found the experience very motivating and it has given me the confidence to be able to do other things and go for qualifications to improve my skills.
Les Johnson, Technical Resources Manager, Engineering, University of Warwick
Achieved its objectives and exceeded my expectations. A thoroughly worthwhile exercise. Everybody should do this.
