Work and Health

The Work and Health Programme is an employment support programme commissioned by the Department of Work and Pensions (DWP). It is designed to improve employment outcomes for people with health conditions or disabilities and those unemployed for more than two years.

The West London Alliance Work and Health Programme is a service commissioned by West London Alliance. The programme is for people with health conditions or a disability, for those unemployed for more than two years, or for those at specific disadvantage in the labour market, to help them find a job.

The Work and health programme is different from other employment programmes because it recognises that everyone:
 

• Is different
• Has their own set of challenges
• Has their own individual reasons for being out of work
• Will have a different path to finding a job

 
It is not a “one-size” fits all approach.
 
That is why it works.
