Abstract

Households into Work (HiW) is an employment support programme led by Liverpool City Region Combined Authority (LCRCA). Clients are offered 1:1 bespoke support for up to 12 months, aimed at helping them identify and overcome the issues that are preventing them from seeking, considering or moving into employment, education or training. The issues faced by people on the programme are complex and varied including debt, finances, housing, mental health, domestic violence, addiction and isolation. HiW has been a key component of LCRCA’s employment and skills strategy since its inception. Phase 1 was a two-year pilot from 2018 to 2020, on the basis of which the programme was continued. This report is on the evaluation of HiW Phase 2, which ran from 1 October 2020 to 31 March 2023. The evaluation has been carried out by the University of Liverpool’s Heseltine Institute for Public Policy, Practice and Place, for the purposes of understanding the outcomes of Phase 2, tracking how the programme has evolved in response to various contextual changes, and informing current and potential future phases.
