The [long-awaited] Prospectus from the Work & Skills Board for a range of contracts has been issued. Funded from the Deprived Areas Fund [DAF] these are aimed solely at the VCF Sector, and are for a number of activities to support the main ESF-funded activity and to test some more innovative ways of helping the target groups such as lone parents, people on incapacity benefit and long-term unemployed into sustainable jobs.

The timetable is short - 13 August is the deadline - and the proforma is quite complex. Support for bidding is available from Mike Hodson at OFFER - mikeh@offer.org.uk

You can download the Prospectus, a Covering Letter and the Proforma Here..

See the separate news item (2 June 2008) for the report from the event.

Here you can see a simple list of the Indicators under the 5 Great Aims of the City Strategy, plus a link to the full document. This is unlikely to change after this. Further discussions will be held at the various Sheffield First Partnership Boards to identify the Actions necessary to achieve the targets.
