Our offer to partners

As a transformative partner we are keen to ensure the community is accessible to specialist hyper-local organisations who will bring essential knowledge and experience but can be limited by scale. Our community is driven by a commitment to collaboration over duplication, supporting the membership to unlock new partnerships both with us and each other.

Our future pipeline

We recognise that transparency makes for better partnerships and commit to keeping our membership aware of new opportunities that are important to us. This page will be regularly updated below to highlight these opportunities.

Future Employment Support

Fedcap is inviting organisations across England to register their interest in partnering with Fedcap to deliver the Department for Work and Pensions’ Future Employment Support programme.
We’re looking for organisations with strong local relationships, specialist expertise and a commitment to helping people overcome barriers to employment. Whether you’re an SME, VCSE, employer network, training provider, health organisation or community partner, we’d like to hear from you.
As a not-for-profit organisation delivering employment, skills and health services across the UK, we believe the strongest employment services are built through genuine local partnerships. We invest in long-term relationships with organisations that bring local knowledge, trusted community connections and specialist support that complements our own delivery.
We are keen to hear from organisations that can bring expertise and local insight to future service delivery, including (but not limited to):

If you’re looking to work with a prime provider committed to developing principled partnerships that enable every organisation to deliver its very best for local people and communities, please get in touch by 25 September 2026. For any queries please contact partnerships@fedcap.org.uk

Ministry of Justice Community Support

The Ministry of Justice is launching community support for men in prison or the community across various regions in England and Wales. These services aim to address rehabilitative needs, helping prevent individuals from re-offending, and providing a combined, whole-person, individualised service. The service will comprise building supportive relationships; connecting to community activities such as volunteering, sports and leisure; assisting with recovery from drug, alcohol, and gambling issues; and achieving sustainable outcomes in housing, employment, and financial management.

Emphasis will be placed on partnerships with criminal justice services, health and addiction services, local authorities, housing providers, employment services, and third-sector organisations. The services will replace existing separate pathway services and aim to support a diverse range of individual needs and characteristics, encouraging involvement from SMEs and VCSE organisations through consortia or supply chains.

Designed to support men both in prison and as they transition back into the community, these services ensure continuous and seamless support. The project will launch in August 2025, with contracts awarded in October 2026 and services going live in March 2027.

Coming soon – Communities of Practice

We understand that our community members cross a broad spectrum of specialists and experts who want to drive excellence. We’re keen to develop Communities of Practice within our membership to facilitate knowledge sharing and bring together like-minded organisations to discuss current and future policy in their discipline. We are currently looking to start with:

  • Supported Employment
  • Employer Engagement
  • Innovation in Tech

However, we know that our WeConnect membership will have some great ideas about what’s needed and so will be consulting with them to finalise and initiate this community offer.

Ready to work with us?

We’re looking to connect with strategic partners, suppliers and providers of specialist services who share our values.

Please provide us with your contact details and a member of our team will be in touch.
