Ingeus has been commissioned by Wandsworth Council and Richmond Council on behalf of the South London Partnership to deliver the Trailblazer rapid response employment programme in the London boroughs of Wandsworth and Richmond-Upon-Thames. The programme launches on 1st September and will support residents who are unemployed but not claiming work-related benefits.
Trailblazer is designed to provide fast, tailored support to help people re-enter the workforce quickly and confidently. Residents aged 18 and over can self-refer onto the programme from the first day of unemployment, accessing one-to-one guidance from employment professionals who understand the local job market and individual needs.
Working in close partnership with Work Match, colleges, housing services, charities, and community groups, Ingeus will deliver a joined-up approach to reach those who need support most. The programme offers help with job searching, applications, and building key workplace skills, as well as support to improve communication and interpersonal abilities.
Adele Holloway, Operations Director, said:
“We’re proud to be delivering Trailblazer in Wandsworth and Richmond-Upon-Thames, helping to create opportunities for residents to take their next steps into employment. Our teams are ready to provide rapid, personalised support to people who may not otherwise be eligible for mainstream employment services, ensuring as many people as possible get the help they need.”
