The 7 Towns Roadshow

This autumn, we are bringing a series of vibrant, hands-on roadshows to each of the seven towns in the London Borough of Ealing. Over seven weeks (October–November 2025), residents have the chance to explore different skill sectors, get tailored pre-employment support, and connect with local opportunities — all in your own community.

We have already hosted three fantastic roadshows, where local residents connected with employers, charities, training providers, and careers advisors to gain inspiration, advice, and guidance for their next career move.

Register now for our next event in Greenford, where you will meet industry experts from the world of technology—including Microsoft—as well as professionals from other exciting sectors. See below for more information and free registration.
