A Path to Work. Support to Stay. Skills to Grow.
Are disabilities, long-term health conditions or other challenges making it hard for you to get or keep work?
Tees Valley Connect to Work offers free, personalised, one-to-one support to help you find, get, and keep a job that works for you. Whether you’re looking for your first job, returning to work after a break, or struggling to stay in work, we’ll support you every step of the way.
Our experienced team will work with you to understand your goals, strengths, and the challenges you face – and build a plan that’s right for your needs. This is not a one-size-fits-all service. Everything we do is tailored to you.
Connect to Work is a voluntary programme funded by the UK Government and led by Hartlepool Borough Council on behalf of the Tees Valley Combined Authority (TVCA). It is designed to help individuals aged 18+ (with some exceptions for 16–17-year-olds) who face challenges in finding or maintaining employment due to disabilities, long-term health conditions, or complex barriers. The programme also supports those at risk of losing their current jobs.
