Working with both purpose and impact
Using insight and data of the area, we understand the needs and local priorities of the region. Including the need to support those with barriers to employment which is a key priority for South Staffordshire Council who encourage businesses to commit to supporting those out of work through their Education, Employment and Skills Plan.
We combine this with discussions with local people and community groups to help us prioritise where we can help most. Ensuring that we deliver both benefit and value that will leave a legacy for generations to come.
