Fair Train is a new national group association for the Voluntary and Community Sector. Enable has been involved since its inception.

We have been tasked to ask our members to join Fair Train. Membership is free with no strings attached. Currently Fair Train needs to expand its membership across the UK to gain strength and fight our corner.         

The Training Needs Analysis will give Fair Train more details about the make up of their membership. On the forms you can put your comments. Enable members have previously mentioned that it would be better if graduates were eligible for an Apprenticeship and if Apprenticeships were available to volunteers. Please add these suggestions if you agree with them.

Currently Fair Train have attained funding for Apprenticeships as it is the Government focus, but with the information you give they will be looking to expand to be able to support us in other areas.

Please complete the Fair Train Membership Application form and the Fair Train Training Needs Analysis form and post or email them back to Nick Taylor at Enable before the end of January 2012.

Enable really want our membership to get behind and support Fair Train. The bigger the membership the stronger the voice.

If you want to know more, please contact Nick Taylor (Workforce Development Adviser). Tel: 0115 934 8495. Email: nick@enable.uk.net
