The Royal British Legion's Civvy Street

[RachelC]

Hi all,

I work with Civvy Street (www.civvystreet.org/), a Royal British Legion website for serving and ex-Service personnel and their families across the UK. It helps with a range of issues around resettlement - including re-training and employment opportunities. It also offers CV building and interview tips. Furthermore, in the twelve months from 01 October 2008, Civvy Street has awarded over £600,000 in training and employment grants.

We've created a short video to help raise awareness of just how exactly Civvy Street can help, to which both Dragon's Den's Duncan Bannatyne and Lord Sugar's new right-hand woman Karren Brady have contributed. The video can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l7ouopIemVs

I would love to know what people make of it - do take a look; any feedback is very much appreciated

The video was fine and it looks like that they are doing a fine job..BUT should not this be started in while the men and women are in the forces to give them a skill when they come out of the forces. Again this is the government pushing out their work to charities rather than take it on them selfs. Still I will be out rattling the RBL can shortly.
