The tender deadline is on 20th February 2023, and the contract period starts on 1st April 2023, lasting until 31st March 2025. This tender by the Walsall Council offers an opportunity for businesses specialising in training services and other community, social, and personal services to deliver support to economically inactive residents. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise organisations (VCSEs) are encouraged to compete. The project aims to engage economically inactive individuals in becoming work-ready and linking them to the labour market, providing various innovative delivery models to achieve these goals. ## Notice The Council wishes to procure a high-quality experienced provider to deliver employment and community-based support to economically inactive residents aged 16+, funded by the UK Shared Prosperity Fund. A core offer should be provided, along with a broad range of support, designed with economic foundation in mind which engage economically inactive people in activities to become work ready.
