An announcement from…
Dear Partner,
As you might recall, G4S recently launched our consultative dialogue on delivery of The Work Programme. This ongoing consultation offers organisations the chance to become part of our supply chain, as well as provide feedback on our unique model for delivering high-quality employment services.
May I take this opportunity to thank everyone who has been in touch with us over the past few weeks. Our supply chain is now taking shape, and your comments and suggestions have been invaluable. We are still looking for more local and national organisations to help strengthen our supply chain and advise us on our strategy going forward.
Today we are pleased to announce the next stage of our ongoing consultative dialogue – a new dedicated website: www.g4swelfaretowork.com. On our site, you will find:
- Our vision and proposed model for delivering welfare-to-work services
- Biographies and contact details for our Regional Partnership Managers
- Background on G4S as an organisation, and information on our presence across each Work Programme region
- Interactive ‘live online events’ (see below)
- News updates, discussions and articles on welfare-to-work
We designed this website to give you – our partners – the chance to find out more about what we are doing and how we want to develop our frontline services. We will work with organisations of all sizes from the voluntary, public and private sectors to deliver the best possible service to jobseekers. The information on our website will give an insight into our plans and objectives as The Work Programme begins to take shape.
We are holding the first ‘live event’ on our website at 1pm on Thursday 2nd December 2010. This event offers you the chance to take part in a live conversation online with expert members of our team.
We will be discussing The Work Programme Framework announcement, potential funding models and the future of welfare-to-work services in the UK over the next decade. There is no need to register in advance for this online event – just visit the ‘Events’ page on our website to join in the conversation. You can also fill in your email address on the ‘Events’ page if you would like a reminder of the event nearer the time.
If you have not yet been in contact and would like to work with us to deliver The Work Programme, then please contact us at G4SWorkProgramme@uk.g4s.com and include your name, organisation name, contact details, and a brief description of where, and what you might like to deliver/contribute.
I hope that you find our website a useful and informative resource, and we very much look forward to working with you.
Best wishes,
Alex Arblaster
