An Inclusive Approach

Cornwall Works is overseen by Inclusion Cornwall and will report to the Cornwall Economic Forum and Cornwall Strategic Partnership.  Jobcentre Plus has committed to working with Inclusion Cornwall to ensure that Cornwall Works becomes the overarching brand and umbrella for delivery of Welfare to Workforce in Cornwall.

Inclusion Cornwall is a thematic group of the Cornwall Strategic Partnership which has for its aim to work across sectors to raise understanding of 'linked problems' and break down the barriers that have prevented residents of Cornwall obtaining equality of opportunity.

Cornwall Works will work across businesses, the Voluntary and Community Sector and public bodies to ensure Cornwall will be a place where all people who wish to work have access to the advice, support and opportunities they need to progress towards, enter and remain in work. All people in Cornwall have the skills, abilities and aptitudes they need to take advantage of the jobs and opportunities that arise from the economic regeneration of the County. An economically inclusive Cornwall will be built upon higher wage levels, sustained low unemployed and equality of opportunities for all.
