Trading Places is a West of England ESF-funded project facilitated by Learning South West.
Trading Places has the potential to change our view of employment in the region, and further afield. With the help of 25 people, who are already successfully challenging employment stereotypes the project sought to identify the reasons why some people choose to work in non-traditional industry sectors – and then to stay in them and be successful.
The 25 people represented 4 groups:
• Women working in engineering
• Men working in social care
• Women working in construction
• Men/women working in retail

All 25 women and men would like ‘influencers’, and young people and adults who are thinking about work, to share their experiences and hear their messages and recommendations.For further information contact either:
