Issue details

The report seeks approval for the Sheffield’s Working Employment Programme 2019– 2020, (The Programme).  The Programme will directly support vulnerable residents to find and sustain employment.

The activities and outcomes of the programme will  directly contribute to the delivery of the Corporate Plan:

•           A Strong and Competitive Economy

•           Tackling Poverty Strategy

The report therefore seeks approval for the Programme, as detailed in the report. 

One of the projects, under the Programme, involves the award of a grant to a third sector organisation, and the report seeks approval for this award and authority for the Executive Director, CYPF, to negotiate and enter the grant agreements with the recipient of the grant. 

The other projects are to be delivered by external providers and the report seeks approval for the Executive Director, CYPF to have authority to negotiate and enter the service agreements with the providers.
