YES Project Health and Wellbeing Support

We are currently inviting applications from providers who are able to supply The YES Project with Health & Wellbeing support provision. Voluntary Action LeicesterShire (VAL) is the lead for the Big Lottery Fund / ESF Building Better Opportunities 'In Support of Family Inclusion' in the Leicester and Leicestershire Enterprise Partnership area (http://www.llep.org.uk/). This is part of the European Structural Investment Fund Thematic Objective 9 and the specification can be found here: https://www.biglotteryfund.org.uk/global-content/programmes/england/building-better-opportunities/leicester-and-leicestershire. The Youth Employability Support (YES) Project is a free service designed to give young adults (aged 15-24), who are not currently employed, the support they need to find work or training opportunities. The project has completed its initial 3 year phase and has been extended until the end of February 2022. We are currently inviting applications from providers who are able to deliver Health & Wellbeing support to the YES Project Participants which will complement our existing programme of activities and where a physical or mental health barrier, disability or learning disability has been identified as a barrier towards employment, education and/or training. This service will work across Leicester and Leicestershire delivering workshops on all aspects of improving a participant's health & wellbeing that allows them to progress along their labour market journey. Application details can be found on the VAL website: https://valonline.org.uk/
