Ways2Work

Our inclusive service is available to all residents of the City of Bristol, delivering a range of resources to assist individuals (particularly those that are isolated), employers and providers. We use a coordinated approach referring participants to local providers where appropriate, using the existing Ways2Work network (and others) to ‘join the system’. We provide personalised employment support that meets the needs of both the work ready and those with complex barriers preventing them from entering the job market. We offer assistance to employers to help them match the right people to the right jobs and guidance on how to be inclusive employers. Employers and providers are offered opportunities to promote their organisations and the chance to share insights into how they can help. Steering Group and Planning Groups In order to deliver the best service possible One Front Door works with local providers, forming planning groups that help us connect to, and better understand, Bristol’s isolated communities. We also have an experienced steering group, comprised of representatives from different organisations across the city, that offers us guidance on strategy and direction. We are part of Bristol City Council’s Employment, Skills and Learning team.
