Coming to a new place can be disorientating and confusing. We are looking for providers who can provide support and integration services to asylum seekers, refugees and migrants living in accommodation within the Kirklees area.

Therefore, the Council is seeking EMP Members who will be able to deliver work in any of the following types of areas (note this is not an exhaustive list) : • Community Integration • Specialist advice and support • Cultural awareness • Health and well being • Support to start to learn and move towards employment This EMP is anticipated to commence on 1st October 2024 for a period of five (5 years) to meet the requirements and demands of the Service.
