WorkWell

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, whether she plans to expand the WorkWell pilot.

Answer

WorkWell is a pilot that went live from October and will run in 15 areas across England, providing low intensity holistic support for health-related barriers to employment, and a single joined up gateway to existing local work and health service provision.

Pilots will run until March 2026 and will generate evidence to support future policy making. Decisions about the future direction of the work, health and skills agenda will be set out at the multi-year spending review in 2025, building on the ambitions set out in the Get Britain Working white paper.
