The award is testament to the Inverclyde-based housing association’s effective practices around youth employment. Albert Henderson MBE, Chair of the River Clyde Homes Board and a former head-teacher, said: “Our young colleagues, apprentices and trainees are the future of our organisation. They bring passion, ambition and fresh ideas and we want to make sure they have a nurturing and supportive environment to work in.” He added: “This accreditation shows that we are truly committed to the training and development of young people and demonstrates that River Clyde Homes is an employer of choice both locally and in the wider area.” Tasmin Ross, Human Resources Assistant said: “I really enjoy working at River Clyde Homes and I think it’s a great company for young people to work for. It is hard for graduates to find good jobs that will give them the experience they need to move forward in their career." She added: “River Clyde Homes has given me the opportunity to work on a wide range of projects and has enabled me to expand my skills and experience – all of which will serve me well in the future.” Peter Russian, Chief Executive of Remarkable (the home for Investors in Young People in Scotland), said: “This is a fantastic achievement for River Clyde Homes and I and the whole IIYP team would like to wholeheartedly congratulate them. The second generation framework not only recognises and supports organisations in the employment of young people, but now offers accredited organisations the additional stretch of achieving silver accreditation.” Picture (l-r) Lauren Newman, Heather McLaughlin, Tasmin Ross, Albert Henderson, Ryan Elder, Thomas Reid, Jamie Reilly Back <12345678910> News items updated - showing page 9 of 10 £17m investment to improve lives and places 04/04/2018 An Easter football eggstravaganza! 03/04/2018 Welcome to the Dark Side 29/03/2018 Big-hearted staff raise £1,700 for charities 27/03/2018 Eviction sends warning over meter tampering 26/03/2018 Take Action to Prevent Arrears! 22/03/2018 Children's Clothing Drive and Sale 22/03/2018 Investing in young people 19/03/2018 Scottish Veterans Home To Let 16/03/2018 Braving the storm 05/03/2018 New year, new homes 14/02/2018 New initiative breathes life into empty Inverclyde properties 06/02/2018 Employment and Training opportunities in Inverclyde 31/01/2018 It's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas in Broomhill 18/12/2017 Now we are 10 15/12/2017 Home Privacy Notice Cookies © River Clyde Homes 2021, Company Number: SC329031, VAT Number: 253499084 Address: Clyde View, 22 Pottery Street, Greenock.
