Lift Off! Help you to kickstart your career on Wearside

At Recovery Connections, we’re proud to work alongside Sunderland GP Alliance on Lift Off!, a programme designed to help people in Sunderland East move forward—whether that’s returning to work, starting training, or volunteering.

Our employment teams in Sunderland, and other parts of the region, have been supporting people into work since 2021. And now, this latest opportunity puts professional support in the path of people ready to return to work on Wearside.

We understand that life’s challenges—health issues, caring responsibilities, or uncertainty—can make those steps feel hard. That’s why Lift Off! offers personalised support, combining health and work coaching to help you feel confident and ready.

Together, we can:

• Build a plan that fits your life and goals
• Boost confidence through coaching
• Support your health and wellbeing
• Explore training, volunteering, and job opportunities

Lift Off! is for adults in Sunderland East who are not currently working and want to take positive steps forward.

We believe feeling well and finding purpose go hand in hand. With the right support, barriers can be broken and new opportunities created.
