Quote graphic that reads: “The scope, funding arrangements and delivery mechanism for essential services addressing economic inactivity provided by the voluntary and community sector must be confirmed as a matter of urgency. Without a clear plan in place, there is a real risk that the progress made by organisations in our sector in supporting those furthest from the labour market will be undone, and the skilled workforce delivering this support will be lost.” There is a photo of NICVA CEO Celine McStravick beside the quote.

Our CEO, @cmcstravick.bsky.social, called for urgent clarity on long-term funding for services tackling economic inactivity 👇
