Working with the National Open College Network Shoreditch Trust has trained a small group of Shoreditch and Hackney residents to achieve accreditation in interpreting, consultation and research skills.

This pool of trained researchers has been used to support a variety of Shoreditch Trust engagement activity, facilitating interaction with those parts of the community often most ‘hard to reach’. Those interested in using this accreditation and practical experience to secure similar employment elsewhere are also supported in this aim.
