We provide education and training to individuals. We don't actually get people into work, but it provides an important stepping-stone in this direction. Will you fund it?
It is unlikely such work will be funded, as our emphasis is on helping disadvantaged individuals secure employment, rather than going onto college or volunteering. Whilst these are important steps, they are not the emphasis of this aim.
We realise many disadvantaged individuals are not close to the labour market, which is why we will consider funding long-term and holistic approaches, which may include building confidence and learning new skills, as long as this is coupled with other support which gives individuals a clear structured pathway into employment.
