Details

COVID-19 has had a major impact on the mental health and wellbeing of the nation. The pandemic has had a particular impact on people who were not in employment before the pandemic as many will now be even further from the labour market and will require in-depth support to get them closer to employment. There will be cohorts of people that are now unemployed as a result of the pandemic and subsequent recession, whose mental health has been impacted as a result of this who require additional support to get them back into work.

It is recognised that support will need to be tailored to the individual and interventions with NEET and potential NEET young people may be different to those in the older age bracket. This should be reflected in the proposed activities.

The programmes of activity must be delivered across the whole of the Humber. Applicants must demonstrate how they will ensure that is achieved and that participants and SMEs in each local authority area of the Humber take part in the programme (Hull, East Riding, North and North East Lincolnshire).

A linked PA2 Call will provide training and support to employers to assist them in managing people with mental health needs.
