Ingeus had the honour of hosting Sir Peter Schofield KCB, Permanent Secretary of the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP), at our Bolton and Bury centres to discuss our Working Well (Work and Health Programme).
Commissioned by the Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA) and delivered by InWork GM, Working Well (Work and Health Programme) provides support for unemployed people with health conditions or disabilities. It is also designed to help individuals who have been out of work for a long time, as well as those who might need specialist support.
During the visit, we showcased the positive impact of Working Well (Work and Health Programme) and Working Well: Pioneer on the local community. These programmes are delivered across all 10 boroughs in Greater Manchester in partnership with the Growth Company and Seetec.
Nicola Wood, Head of Delivery for Working Well (Work and Health Programme), said: “We are proud to collaborate with GMCA and local authorities to offer a fully integrated programme that is embedded in the local community and provides access to a range of support to ensure our participants have every opportunity to achieve and sustain employment.”
Working Well (Work and Health Programme) has supported over 29,000 individuals, with over 17,000 of them gaining employment.
Working Well: Pioneer commenced in September 2023 and has so far supported 991 individuals, of whom 200 have gained employment.
