DWP Pathways to Work Innovation Fund Events

The Pathways to Work Innovation Fund is a UK-wide grants fund supporting organisations to test and develop innovative approaches that help disabled people and people with long-term health conditions move closer to work, enter work, stay in work and progress in work.

The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) is inviting organisations interested in applying to the Pathways to Work Innovation Fund to attend one of five in-person events across the UK.

What the events will cover

• The purpose and objectives of the Fund
• Who can apply and the types of proposals the Fund is seeking
• The application process, key requirements and available support
• Opportunities to ask questions and hear questions raised by other prospective applicants
• Networking and discussion with other organisations interested in the Fund
• Refreshments will be provided

Registration

• To register please click here.
• Please register as soon as possible, as places are limited. Registration for each event will close when capacity is reached or by the published registration deadline, whichever is earlier.
• We encourage registration as early as possible as places are limited and registration requests will be reviewed before places are confirmed.
• Venue information will be issued with the confirmation email within two working days of submission of the form.

 Accessibility and reasonable adjustments

• DWP is committed to making these events accessible and inclusive. The registration form asks attendees to tell us about any accessibility requirements or reasonable adjustments. This may include, for example, British Sign Language interpretation, Speech-to-Text Reporting or live captioning, step-free access, a hearing loop, a quiet space, accessible or alternative-format materials, dietary requirements, or other support.
• Please provide as much information as possible when registering so that appropriate arrangements can be considered.

Fair and consistent access to information

• Presentation materials and relevant outputs from the sessions, including responses to questions that provide clarification for applicants, will be shared after the events. This will help ensure that information provided at the events is disseminated consistently and made available to all prospective applicants, including organisations that are unable to attend.
• Attendance is not a requirement for applying to the Fund and will not give any advantage in the application or assessment process.
