Yes, you will need to bring with you evidence of your home address as well as evidence of any benefits you are claiming. Typically we ask for a passport or birth certificate and a copy of your universal credit statement

There is no timescale for the support for individuals, however the project is currently only funded until the end of March 2026.

We try to arrange an appointment convenient to you, which could be in your local library, local jobcentre or we have an office base at Mcklintocks Building on Summer Lane in Barnsley

Yes, of course. We are keen to make the support as accessible as possible and recognise that many people are anxious at first so you are welcome to bring along 1 or 2 people with you to the first appointment. Just let the team know in advance so we can ensure we know who to expect.

Yes, we can offer support to people who are in work on this programme and who are seeking to upskill
