5 Borough Single Point of Access case study

A linked, comprehensive and accessible employment support service across five London Boroughs

5 Borough Single Point of Access project is centred on the need to engage people who traditionally have poor or low levels of engagement with the existing welfare to work or Jobcentre Plus (JCP) support. The programme is delivered in Greenwich, Hackney, Newham, Tower Hamlets and Waltham Forest, with a special focus on long term workless parents who face multiple barriers to the labour market and who are not readily engaged with existing mainstream welfare to work support.

This case study (PDF 7pp) was published in September 2011 when I failed to notice it. I hope that late is better than never for reading about this innovative approach to long-term unemployment.
