February 2019

Working Links announced it had gone into administration on Friday. The privately owned company was acquired by Aurelius in 2016 and delivers services across the employability, learning and skills and justice sectors. Working Links delivered a variety of employment programmes funded through the Scottish Government and ESF but failed to gain a contract to deliver the Work & Health Programme.

CHANNEL 4 have just opened up a work experience opportunity that will take part on the 15^th & 16^th April at their London office for those 16years+ looking to find out more about the different types of jobs in TV. 

DWP has announced that, from 1 April 2019, people will now be able to claim up to £59,200 annually to help pay for additional support that they may need in the workplace through the government’s Access to Work scheme. This can include workplace adaptations, assistive technology, transport and interpreters.

It comes after the government increased the cap by almost a third last year. Now, even more people will be able to benefit, especially those from the deaf community who can get BSL interpreters through the scheme.

Lincolnshire County Council wishes to commission a Supported Employment service that will help people with a learning disability and autism that are known to Adult Care and Community Wellbeing Services to experience work and retain paid employment. This service will be known as the Specialist Tailored Employment Partnership.
