Notice Information

Notice Title

Independent Travel Training

Notice Description

Travel training schemes have been introduced by a number of Local Authorities nationally which have proven beneficial in enabling independent travelling of service users. Outcomes from national programmes are wide ranging and cross cut many key policy areas, including: Accessibility; Transport & Road Safety; Education; Health; Employment; and Social Services. National best practice guidance suggests that Travel Training has been beneficial for people who are less able or less inclined to travel independently. DurhamWorks has identified a need for this training to support 40 existing DurhamWorks 3F participants who are currently heavily reliant on taxis to access our services and to support new participants where independent travel is identified as a barrier. This opportunity is funded via ESF YEI Additional information: Tender documents can be accessed free of charge at www.nepo.org utilising reference DN667013
