About
Walsall Council e-Tendering awarded a contract to Steps to Work (Walsall) Ltd for the provision of employment and community-based support to economically inactive residents aged 16 and over, funded by the UK Shared Prosperity Fund.
The contract, valued at £800,000, covers a core offer and a broad range of support designed with an economic foundation to engage economically inactive people in activities to become work ready.
