Giving local people the knowledge and independence to create better lives for themselves and their communities through employment.

We know everyone is different, that's why we provide a local service, tailored around you and your needs.

We work with a range of people throughout Central London including health professionals, employment specialists and local community organisations to create a support package to help you find the right job, at the right time.

Central London Works is designed to help central London residents who have been unemployed for a long time, as well as people with health conditions, into work.

What will you get out of Central London Works?

 

Caseworker

Your dedicated employment specialist will help you move into work at your pace. They can also offer support for skills, health, housing and local government services.

Online support

Access to a digital service that allows you to do things your way. Accessible 24/7, you can schedule your own appointments at a time and date that suits you, join online courses that you know will benefit you, and look for jobs that match your skills.

Wellbeing

Physical and mental health support, not just from our in-house qualified professionals, but from local community and partner organisations, ensuring that you have access to a range of wellbeing support that best suits your needs.

Local community links

If we don’t specialise in it we will find you someone who does. Our local partnerships mean that we can put you in touch with the right people or work with your current support network to ensure you get an all-round service.

Support while in work

You will continue to have access to skills training and health & wellbeing support, as well as the ability to seek guidance and advice from your Caseworker and specialist organisations in your local community.

Flexible and easy to access service

Join us in one of our friendly, open office spaces or meet somewhere that you feel comfortable such as a coffee shop, community centre or maybe even your local library. We can also help plan your journey to and from our appointments and fund your travel.

Free learning

Take part in online health and skills training packages including fit club, back care, sleep and routine, and creating a CV. Or join one of many face-to-face courses supporting you with anything from managing your health condition and how to address it with an employer, to setting up online banking, understanding your strengths and enhancing your IT skills.

Employer relationships

You will have access to vacancies with local and national employers, who we can work with to explain your individual situation and help the employer make the right adjustments to job opportunities to support your circumstances.
