Published requirement description

Sheffield City Council is seeking a range of providers to deliver employment support for people who are unemployed or economically inactive residents of Sheffield.

Participants will likely have barriers to entering employment, training or education to achieve their goals. The universal project (lot 1) will support the widest scope of people, the specialist health project (lot 2) will focus on participants who have physical disability, learning disability or mental health needs.

The project is part funded by the European Social Fund.
