Support for Individuals

Response to Redundancy is a new initiative to
support individuals under notice of redundancy, those recently made
redundant, and those that are unemployed and need support to
re-enter the current labour market.
You can receive support if you:
- Are under notice of redundancy
- Have been made redundant in the last 6 months
- Have been unemployed in the last 6 months
Linking this initiative with an existing service called Skills
for Jobs and other support available through Job Centre Plus and
Next Step, we offer you a one-stop shop to get you back into
employment.
