Foundation Programmes:
"Since I started at Springboard Islington I have learned a lot of skills doing painting and decorating. I have also gained a lot of confidence. Before I came to Springboard I lacked motivation and had problems with my time keeping but the course that I am now doing has given me the incentive to get myself up which will help me to get a job when I complete the course."
