The People Hub is an innovative combination of technology and personal support to provide practical support and information to enable people who are currently unemployed or inactive resolve the key issues that may be preventing them from moving on in life.

They run an information line, where our Connectors are on hand to provide free and confidential information, advice, guidance, and they can also support individuals looking to get back into work, employment and training. The People Hub is part funded by the European Social Fund and has four delivery partners: Konnect Communities, Hi9, SmartMatching, and the Council of the Isles of Scilly.

Who is The People Hub For?

• You've recently been made redundant and want to get back into work or training
• You are looking for help with moving forward but aren't sure what support is out there or where to look

Testimonials

'At the end of last year, I was made redundant and was at a real loss. I was referred to The People Hub and spoke to Kim who kindly referred me to another lady Maggie at the National Careers Service with a view to reviewing my CV. I made the call and updated my CV. My revised CV got lots more interest and I ended up here - a newly recruited Work Coach for the DWP. So a big thank you to Kim for that initial advice.'

'It's great to hear that the focus is on the need of the customer, and doing what is right for them.'
