Further information
What is the People Hub evaluation?
Wavehill has been engaged to undertake an evaluation of the Shared Prosperity Fund - CIOS People Hub Programme. The People Hub was originally set up in 2019 as a result of investment from the European Social Fund and Cornwall Council, which ran until the end of 2023. Following a successful bid to the Cornwall and Isles of Scilly Growth Programme, £6m of funding from the UK Government’s Shared Prosperity Fund (SPF) was secured for a new project, which commenced delivery in January 2024. The People Hub is fully funded by SPF up to and including 31 March 2025.
The project represents a single “front door” for residents aged 16 or over; either seeking employment and/or skills support, across Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly (CIoS). It allows local residents to access a simplified, yet comprehensive employment and skills support offer via a single point of contact.
The evaluation will cover the more qualitative aspects of the project including some of the indirect benefits. These will be outcomes which do not form part of the measurable contractual targets but the wider impacts on participant lives.
