‘Thrive’ is a Suffolk based project providing a personal development service that gives adults and young people in Suffolk the tailored support and skills that they need to take a first step into employment, education or training.
Thrive services are free of charge, and we have our dedicated Progression Coaches to support and help you with your journey to a successful career.
Thrive works with young people aged 16-24.
We can offer support and guidance in:
- CV writing and interview skills,
- Career options, job searching and additional training needs,
- Funded training or work experience,
- Confidence building and mentoring
- Signposting to additional services

Thrive Triangular Model
As our Triangular model shows, our Thrive provision offers adults and young people the chance to attend one-to-one appointments to search for work and courses, design CVs and get careers guidance. They can attend a Job Club each week to search and apply for vacancies. They can also benefit from an Adults Skills for Employment course or a Thrive Employability, Numeracy and Literacy programme.
- After February half-term we are looking to run an ‘Unlock your Future’ course alongside the Apollo project, which focuses on Healthcare professions. It also includes IT Support, Management and Catering (this is in Bury St Edmunds).
- In Sudbury Thrive is hoping to run an ‘Unlock your Future’ course for 16-18s which will include Employability, Numeracy and Literacy. This will be 6 weeks long, dates to be confirmed.
- We have been working alongside the Job Centre at Sudbury, and we have a Job Club due to start Thursday 30th January at 2pm-4pm this is for both Young People and Adults. The duration of this club is ongoing.
