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 into employment. Target groups 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.
- Referrals through non-traditional routes, such as local health and wellbeing providers, integrating services with and within healthcare and other relevant settings, such as, but not limited to, GP surgeries.
- Collaboration with other providers already working with the target group to add value and not duplicate provision. Partnership working with Jobcentre Plus (JCP) to design and deliver activities to ensure they add value to the JCP core offer and develop referral routes onto the programme to ensure that JCP customers, particularly those not part of the WHP, have access to this project.
- Delivery of the ESF outputs and results described in Section 3 of this Call, as well as demonstrate a recognition of health related outcomes. Applicants should demonstrate how changes in health / health behaviours / condition management have been made in those clients for whom health was identified as a barrier to work.
