Daniel Smith Email & Phone Number

Daniel is the driving force behind Plymouth's South West Regional Assessment Center, in which he helps the unemployed gain new qualifications and gives them work experience.Whilst the trainees are on a four week course with the center they manufacture alternative fuels such as Fuelites kindling and biomass briquettes, this is used as a training tool in order to assess there skills for the units they are to successfully complete. As a local community hub for alternative fuels his aim is to help combat local fuel poverty and give the community an alternative fuel source thats affordable and easy to access.Daniel's main goal for the center is to ensure the unemployed are given a fair chance, a light at the end of the tunnel. Daniel said '' After finding myself unemployed in 2011 for the first time since leaving education i was shocked to find how little support was actually there for a person who found themselves unemployed. I fell in to the trap that most unemployed people do, and after course, after course, that i was sent on, i was thoroughly dissapointed to find that my success of gaining employment had not increased since starting the courses. With that in mind i wanted to support local people back into work and show them that someone actually does care about them, that somebody is willing to offer a hand in their time of need.''Since joining SWRAC in August 2013, Daniel has proven he is able to keep the unemployed motivated, to keep them on track and give support in any way possible. With the figure being so high for unemployment in plymouth, Daniel feels he must grasp the chance to help all those in need to find employment
