The Growth Company Expression of Interest - Connect to Work: Wirral

Tender summary

The Growth Company is seeking to engage with key local partners to work alongside us for our bid to Wirral Borough Council to deliver the Individual Placement Support (IPS) element for Wirral residents. As a provider delivering multiple IPS contracts including IPS in Primary Care, IPS Drug and Alcohol, IPS Severe Mental Illness and more recently Connect to Work, we understand what it takes to deliver high quality services and interventions for the target groups. Connect to Work is the first major element of the recently launched "Get Britain Working" White Paper. Nationally the programme will deliver support to 100,000 disabled people, people with health conditions, and those with complex barriers to get into employment and get on in work. The service, funded by Wirral Borough Council via Grant Funding Agreement with the Department for Work and Pensions, will provide support for 1,537 Wirral residents. This voluntary programme aims to support individuals with a physical or mental health disability (as defined by the Equality Act 2010 or the Social Model of Disability), or those in a specific disadvantaged group who need support to gain and/or maintain employment. Eligible participants will come from two distinct cohorts: 1) Out of work participants with a health condition, disability, or who are experiencing disadvantage and require assistance and support to move into employment; and 2) In work participants who are off sick or struggling in the workplace due to their disability, health condition or disadvantage.
