The Clackmannanshire Local Employability Partnership (LEP) has recently reviewed its purpose to take forward at a local level the actions from the No One Left Behind delivery plan and Covid-19 response based on the principles which underpin the approach contained within the Partnership Agreement for employability agreed by Scottish and Local Government.
Supporting people into fair, sustainable jobs is central to delivering many of the ambitions for an inclusive, sustainable economy with well-being at its core. Employability services are pivotal to avoiding the widening of social and economic inequalities by supporting those who are most vulnerable. We recognise the vital role that a range of organisations across the employability landscape play, and are committed to protecting a diverse range of provision and ensuring that the right support is put into place for those who rely on these services.
The LEP will build on the strengths of existing national and local services, to better align funding and to improve the integration of employability services with other support to ensure that services are designed and delivered around the needs and aspirations of those using our services.
The LEP will report to the Community Planning Partnership, the Clackmannanshire Alliance.
Members of the LEP are:
The LEP has updated the Employability Services Guide for Clackmannanshire which has been developed as a tool to help staff in all front line services identify what support is available locally to move their clients towards and into work.
Colleagues within the LEP have produced a range of resources, educational programmes, support services and training information for supporting young people’s resilience and mental well being available via the above link.
