WW:IPSPC is a vital step into making that a reality for many in Greater Manchester. We are committed to helping people navigate the challenges they face and help them achieve their employment goals.”
The Growth Company’s Head of Individual Placement and Support, Rochelle Seddon, said:
“We're pleased to be working with Ingeus in Stockport to build on the successes of the first chapter of Working Well: Individual Placement and Support in Primary Care.
This collaboration marks an exciting new chapter, and we’re committed to expanding access to high-quality, IPS-based employment support—helping even more people across Greater Manchester move closer to meaningful, sustainable work.”
