Overview
The Humber’s European Structural and Investment Funds programme 2014-2020 is investing over
£99.22m in the Humber through the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF), European Social
Fund (ESF) and European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD).
To date, a number of programmes have been approved which provide support for people to access
employment, consider starting their own business, improve their skills and become more socially
included.
There are also a number of programmes that have been commissioned by our neighbouring LEPs
which are delivering support in our overlapping areas of East Riding, North and North East
Lincolnshire.
The Humber LEP is keen to ensure that all work coaches, advisors and organisations working to
support people to gain employment or improve their skills are aware of the support that is being
offered through these programmes, to stimulate cross referrals and make the necessary impact on
levels of employment and skills in the Humber.
This document provides a summary of this support, as well as details of other Employment and Skills
programmes that are currently live in the Humber which are complementary to the ESIF funded
programmes. It also includes details of provision that is targeted at those that are considering
starting their own business as an alternative.
PLEASE NOTE – This delivery of some of the programmes listed may have been impacted by Covid-
19 and as a result, delivery may be different to what is listed (e.g. use of online delivery methods,
programmes paused etc).

The programme works in partnership with LEPs, local authorities, schools, colleges and employers. The Enterprise Advisor Network will enable volunteers to work directly with the senior leadership team in secondary schools and colleges to support more effective connection to the world of work and develop, shape or add value to the school or college’s careers, enterprise and employer engagement strategy. The Humber LEP has two Enterprise Coordinators in place to deliver the Careers & Enterprise Company project in the Humber area. Each Coordinator is responsible for 20 prioritised schools/colleges and 20 Enterprise Advisers recruited from local businesses, as well as coordinating the support partnerships to ensure young people achieve their career goals, understand the local labour market and have all of the tools they need to assist them to success.

Each mentor works with a smaller sub-group of five students. Mentoring lasts for the duration of the academic year.
Young Enterprise “Young Enterprise provides a Learner Development Journey to young people consisting of a Day Programme, followed by a Company Programme. This journey ensures disengaged young people access the same opportunities as their peers and that they leave education with experiences of the world of work, as well as with the key skills that employers are looking for. The Day Programme runs across a full school day and comprises a series of practical activities and interactions with mentors from business; the focus is to raise the aspirations of disengaged young people. Young Enterprise works with the schools and mentors to identify those students who would most benefit from progressing on to the in-depth Company Programme. This sees young people plan for, set up and run their very own enterprise, working in small teams and supported weekly by a dedicated business mentor, as they experience every element of starting a business.”
