Pathways to Work

Pathways to Work is designed to provide greater support to people claiming Employment and Support Allowance (ESA), Incapacity or sickness benefits in their move back into work.

When you are registered with us, we will discuss your return to work and create an Action Plan which will map out your move from benefits into employment.

Also specialist support services including:

support for people that want to become self employed
