BRIC is an unemployed peoples centre providing services and opportunities towards alleviating experiences of low income and unemployment amongst local (South East Northumberland) people. Established in 1983, BRIC has worked closely with local people for over 27 years supporting them through the difficult experience of unemployment by raising their confidence and skills in support of their return to education, into training or back to work. Through on-going service reviews and evaluations BRIC has worked to ensure and affect services that remain relevant and of value to our clients.
