2024/25
Employability End of Year Report
We’re proud to share the achievements of our employability service in 2024/25.
The service provides meaningful support to customers through various provisions including one-to-one employment support, apprenticeships, volunteering and work experience opportunities.
We know that supporting people into employment isn’t as simple as presenting them with a job vacancy and helping them to apply. It is a journey that starts with taking a holistic view of customers’ needs and helping them get into a space where they feel emotionally and practically ready to take their next steps.
