Gateshead Council: Positive Steps

Working Gateshead Logo

The Positive Steps project will help to reduce levels of economic inactivity through investment in bespoke, intensive employment support for some of Gateshead's most disadvantaged residents. 

  • Positive Steps will focus on specific groups facing labour-market barriers. These will include but are not limited to: 

    • people with multiple and complex barriers to fulfilling and healthy working lives 

    • those who are homeless or vulnerably housed 

    • ex-offenders 

    • people with substance misuse challenges 

    • people who have experienced domestic abuse 

The project will be delivered by a dedicated job coach within the council's Working Gateshead employment support service.
