Work and Health Pioneer
What is Work and Health Programme - Pioneer?
WHP Pioneer is a new voluntary service to support people back into sustainable employment, funded by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP). This self-referral employment support service offers a tailored approach and wrap-around training that allows us to work with you individually to support your needs best.
We’ll start by learning all about you – your goals, your talents, and what you’d like help with. Then we’ll support you to find a job that is out there waiting for you.
