Army veterans struggling to find work and left homeless are finally getting a voice in the community thanks to the help of a Manchester charity and a newly formed union. Veterans into Logistics helps ex-servicemen get into higher paid jobs as HGV drivers by getting them qualifications after serving their time.
They have recently helped one of their contacts get into work through this scheme - Reece Jackson. Reece was going from job to job in a bid just to get by but says this time ‘it feels different'.
The former infantryman has secured employment with Muller in Trafford Park, pending the completion of his driving assessment, after being supported by Darren Wright’s team at VIL.
