Through an employer led model, we oversee programmes which support Surrey residents to find, maintain and remain in work; currently these programmes are funded by DWP through Connect to Work and WorkWell.

WorkWell is an emerging programme built on learnings from a pilot year, as a coaching service, which aligns work and health provision to support residents overcome health-related barriers to remain in or return to work. Together these programmes, along with our newly devolved Adult Skills fund and access to a strong local skills development offer which includes Skills Bootcamps, provide a coherent employment and skills offer to Surrey's residents and businesses.
