Workways+ offers training and paid work experience opportunities to long-term unemployed people to help get their lives back on track.
Support targets participants residing outside of Communities First Areas who are economically inactive, long-term unemployed or have complex barriers to overcome. Workways + helps participants take their first steps to re-engage or enter into the labour market.
Backed by £17.3 million of EU funds, the seven-year scheme will benefit people in Neath Port Talbot, Swansea, Carmarthenshire, Pembrokeshire and Ceredigion.
Workways+ offers one-to-one mentoring, support with job-seeking and interview skills, and the chance to gain new qualifications. Support will target individuals affected by work-limiting health conditions and disabilities, as well as those with care responsibilities and low or no skills.
