21st July, 2021 Read time: Two minutes

Well for Work offers personalised help to feel confident and supported when it comes to work, for life

 

Well for Work is a new ESF funded programme run by Futures and partners which aims to support lone parents, those with disabilities or health problems, people from ethnic minorities, people over 50 and those who lack basic skills, to get into work and stay in work. 

The aim is simple, when it comes to work, individuals that are facing barriers, whether it’s mental health or financial struggles, special educational needs or disabilities, substance misuse or are perhaps without English as a first language, will be provided with the personalised help they need to feel confident and supported for life.  

Working alongside local businesses, Futures will offer bespoke training to ensure people who are work-ready have the right skills for the job, and beyond. For those who aren’t ready to jump straight into work, individual support will be offered to develop confidence, skills and the ability to enter employment.

Working alongside a range of specialist partners, Well for Work can offer support around housing needs, specialist disability advice, debt and welfare advice. People will be supported in being and feeling the best version of themselves.

As an employer, Futures for Business can help you hire diverse & inclusive talent from a pool of work ready candidates and upskill your team with a range of training courses to suit your business, whilst creating a workforce that reflects the diverse range of customers it serves and the community in which it is based.
