Connect to Work Supported Employment Programme

BCP Council is undertaking further market engagement via a survey before finalising the delivery plan for the DWP (Department for Work and Pensions ) funded, local authority led Connect to Work supported employment service for Dorset. We would like to gain understanding of the range of existing local support services working with adults in Dorset who would potentially be in scope for this new service. This survey includes a range of questions that will help us to map the existing services and will also help us to determine where there may be experience and capacity within local organisations to become delivery partners, referral partners or support organisations, subject to a formal procurement process. Before completing the survey, please watch the presentation via the link within the survey to find out more about the Connect to Work supported employment service and our intentions. Completed surveys should be submitted via the messaging facility on this activity by midday on Monday 1st December 2025 (access is via Supplying the South West). Participation or non-participation in this market engagement event shall not prejudice organisations participating in any future procurement process nor is it intended that any information supplied shall place any organisation at an advantage in any forthcoming procurement process
