The EAP is a source of help and support available to all College employees from 1 September 1998. It is a free confidential information, advice and counselling service designed to help College employees and your family household members deal with personal problems, some of which may be affecting work, and with work-related concerns which staff do not necessarily wish to discuss with someone from the College in the first instance. The EAP is operated by PPC, an independent organisation, who provide professional counsellors to discuss problems in complete confidence outside the working environment. To use the service, any College employee and family household members can call the confidential freephone number on 0800 083 7400. This is operated by PPC and answered in person 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

People news Starters and leavers Since we last reported there have been a number of changes in staff. We have said goodbye to:
Anna de Fortuna, Christie Illingworth, Lynsey Travers, Nicola Beacon and Tyesha Inniss would all like to say a BIG thank you to everyone for their support: “We feel overwhelmed by everyone’s generous donations. We have so far raised £596.32! “Our finish times ranged from 1 hour 8 minutes to 1 hour 26 minutes, all under our original target of 1 hour 30 minutes. We felt so proud to take part in the Race for Life as it is such a worthy cause, and would recommend taking part next year!”
