Gugu Mthethwa, GCPA’s seconded Pastoral Care Officer, has recently been running network events for Gloucestershire’s international recruits at the Friendship Café in Gloucester with really positive feedback from those who attended the sessions.

Following on from this, GCPA are now offering drop in sessions at your organisation’s settings, so as many international recruits as possible can be supported by Gugu and the GCPA team.

How can this benefit your organisation?

· Gugu can support your induction plan and ensure that international staff have a smooth transition into your workplace.

· Providing continuous support with accommodation, bank and GP registrations.

· Helping to integrate international staff into their communities and allow them to feel at home.

Testimonials of network event attendees:

“The event was amazing and really helpful for me. I got a lot of new information from GCPA’s side. Gugu and Ollie made excellent conversation with me and my husband. I would like to learn more about my career progression.”

“We really enjoyed today’s networking event. This is a good initiative for international employees.”
