Past participants and various members of the team, including participants that now work for the service in result of its scheme, spoke about the positive impact that Working Denbighshire has already had in the County and how it continues to support residents into employment through training, wellbeing activities, job searching, cv writing and so much more. 

Sediq Shamal, Luke Jones and Brandon Nellist opened up about their personal experiences with Working Denbighshire and the Guardian followed up the visit with a full article.
