Sir, this suits you: Suit Works and REACH eco-housing interviews

Vanda Kewley set up The Suit Works, a social enterprise providing a free service to help unemployed men of all ages to succeed at interview by building confidence and self esteem through personal styling.

Their clients receive a suit, shirt, tie and shoes and if needed an interview skills training session to help them be the best they can in job interviews.

Vanda's been on the show before. She returned for this episode with client Simbarashe (Simba) Mandizvizda, and Kyle Odister, a professional basketball player at Sheffield Sharks Basketball, who has been assisting The Suit Works through the Wosskow Brown Foundation.

This episode also includes an interview with Jon Johnson and Jordan Gell of the REACH housing project. REACH is a Sheffield-based social enterprise training apprentices to use reclaimed and recycled materials to build affordable eco-homes from shipping containers.
