2020 // A Year in Review
What a strange year! I think it’s fair to say that few people would have predicted the events of 2020.
Despite the unexpected challenges, there were plenty of positives to celebrate at JERICHO this year!
A New Look JERICHO
In September we launched our exciting new branding bringing our social enterprises and projects into the ‘Jericho family’ making it clear what we represent, who we help and how we do it.

Award Winners
Also in September, we were thrilled to receive the Centre for Social Justice’s Work and Welfare Award. The award recognises the positive impact we have on people’s lives and our burgeoning relationship with CSJ will give us the platform to ensure the issues that affect people with barriers to employment and social inclusion are heard and represented at the highest level.
Watch Bear Grylls announce our award win and the story of a Survivor of Modern Slavery that we have supported:
Apprentice Completers
Despite all the additional barriers facing them this year, we were incredibly proud to see six apprentices complete their time with us. We look forward to supporting you in the next stage of your work journey and hearing of your future adventures.
A special congratulations to Will from our Wood Shack social enterprise who achieved his apprenticeship with a distinction.
Thanks also to our partner colleges and training providers, South and City College and Gordon Franks Training for your support and dedication in helping our apprentices achieve. We look forward to having many more successes together in 2021.
You can find out more about our supported apprenticeship project here.
