DWP works on the topics of employment, pensions and ageing society and welfare.

We are committed to developing strong and productive partnerships at a local, regional and national level. The local expertise we get from our external relationships helps us move people into and closer to work or claim any eligible benefits.

By working together we meet shared objectives and avoid duplication. We keep our partners up to date on welfare and policy changes, ensuring that everyone can access the support they need.

Contact the partnership team for your area to find out how we can work together.

DWP occasionally publishes details of local partnership opportunities with Jobcentre Plus. These provide work-focused activities to help people prepare for and move into employment.

Providing work-focused activities

DWP uses a Dynamic Purchasing System to buy work-focused activities to help people move into work. Get more information and find out how to bid for the opportunity to supply these activities on Contracts Finder.
