We recognise there are particular challenges faced by people who worked in the hospitality, arts, retail and tourism sectors and also would like to see a particular focus on those who are over 50 or have disabilities. The call is to offer training, confidence building, and skills development that will enable these now out-of-work individuals to either: - Re-skill or up-skill in order to promptly pivot to new sectors (for example: care, customer services or self-employment) - Pro-actively prepare for the new post-COVID-19 job opportunities (local tourism, training on sanitary measures, hygiene, Health and Safety) through training, confidence building, and skills development. Total grant funding amount available: £280,000 (European Social Fund - ESF) ### Expected intervention rate: 80% Match: to be found from non-EU sources. Minimum total project costs: Projects costs will have to be over £50,000 (i.e. Minimum £40,000 CLLD ESF grant per project). ## CPV classification Higher education services Source Contracts Finder (UK) [View official notice](https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/notice/566ad510-e12a-4787-acd1-9264c668f4e5) Never miss a tender like this again Get AI summaries, deadline alerts and a bid pipeline for tenders matched to your business.
