19th December 2011: BEST awarded a sub-contract to EOS to deliver DWP ESF Support for Families

It has been estimated that there are around 120,000 families in England with multiple problems. Turning around the lives of these families is core to the Government’s strategy. Local Authorities will identify families like these, including families where unemployment crosses generations, to participate in ESF support. The provision is voluntary and will help move families closer to employment.

We have been selected to deliver ESF Support for Families on behalf of EOS across the areas of Kirklees and Bradford. In addition to expanding our portfolio of programmes, we are confident that this will support an invigorated approach to supporting individuals into sustainable employment.
