This call is now closed. Please do not submit an application for this call. The information provided on this page is for reference purposes only.
Details
The ambition of this Call is to provide additional and complementary activity to those people who are not able to access the Work and Health Programme, but still need support to get themselves back in to employment. Activities should include:
-
Delivery of an employment based provision that includes, or works alongside, health and wellbeing related programmes and outcomes in order to address individuals’ barriers to work and ultimately reduce the number of people that are unemployed, in whole or in part, due to health condition(s), disability or social need.
-
Applicants are encouraged to prioritise people with complex and multiple barriers to work who may or may not be claiming benefit and especially those furthest from the labour market. The project should not compete with DWP provision, and should prioritise entry to people with moderate to severe mental health issues, learning difficulties, autism, dyslexia, substance misuse, muscular skeletal problems and long term health conditions. Interventions must be flexible and responsive to address individual needs.
